Biden WON’T ban Russian oil: Press kicked of Cabinet meeting during questions on Russian energy and Psaki snaps at reporters as Nancy Pelosi leads lawmakers urging White House to stop imports
- ‘We don’t have a strategic interest in reducing the global supply of energy, and that would raise prices at the gas pump for the American people,’ Psaki said
- She shifted blame to oil companies for not doing more to increase U.S. production
- Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for ban on all oil and gas exports from Russia
- ‘Ban it. Ban the oil coming from Russia,’ Pelosi said
- Her call came as President Joe Biden prepares to sanction more Russian oligarchs and their families
- United States cracking down on Russia after Ukraine invasion
- New sanctions, which could come as soon as Thursday, will mirror those the EU put on Russian oligarchs but not target the exact same people
- But will be expanded to oligarch’s families so they can’t transfer assets to spouses or children
