Russia bans oil sales to countries using price cap
Russia has banned oil sales to countries and companies that comply with a price cap agreed by Western nations
The Price cap - which was agreed by the G7 group of nations, Australia and the EU - came into force on 5 December.
The cap prohibits countries from paying More Than $60 (€56; £50) per Barrel of Russian oil.
Russia has now said its oil and oil products will not be sold to anyone imposing The Price cap.
The presidential decree said the ban would take effect for five months from 1 February until 1 July.
The decree also said Russian President Vladimir Putin could give " special permission" to supply to countries that fall under the ban.

Russia's Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said on Tuesday that Russia's budget deficit could be wider than the planned 2% of GDP in 2023 - with the oil price cap squeezing export income.
Oil is currently trading at around $80 a Barrel - Well down from the peaks of above $120, seen in March and June .
