The move represents one of America’s most far-reaching actions to penalize Moscow since the beginning of the war.
Europe, which is far more dependent on Russian energy exports, is currently considering its own similar ban. Collectively, bans from both the U.S. and Europe on Russian energy would deprive Russian President Vladimir Putin of one of his government’s chief sources of revenue – but also risk a shock to the global economic system that could severely damage the west’s economies.
