Russia continues to export Oil for The Time being due to deals and trades made before Moscow sent its troops into Ukraine, the IEA said. New business has all but dried up, however, because many Western countries are seeking alternative fuel supplies.
Some countries, such as the US and Canada, have banned Russian Oil imports, but by contrast, the EU, which is much more reliant on Russian energy, has stopped short of a ban.

" Russia's invasion of Ukraine has brought energy security back to the forefront of political agendas as commodity prices surge to new heights. While it is still too early to know how events will unfold, The Crisis May Result in lasting changes to energy markets, " it said.
The Price of Brent Crude Oil - the global benchmark for prices - hovered around $100 per barrel on Wednesday, having previously reached record highs of More Than $130 a barrel in The Immediate aftermath of Western countries hitting Russia with sanctions.
The UK only imports about 6% of Oil from Russia, but is affected by the global shifts in price which are driven by supply and demand forces.

'Drivers need a break'UK motoring groups have said fuel prices are likely to fall as global Oil prices stabilise.
Yet, there is a concern some retailers might be reluctant to lower their prices for fear of being caught out if wholesale costs jump back up again.
