The roble had hit a record low after the West imposed sweeping sanctions on Russia for its aggression in Ukraine. Russia’s president recently ordered exports of Russian gas to “unfriendly” countries to be settled in robles. The speaker of Russia’s upper house of parliament said Moscow was prepared and could shift supplies to markets such as Asia if Europe refused to buy Russian energy.
European countries, which pay mostly in euros, say Russia has no right to reset contracts. The G7 rejected Russia’s demand and urged companies not to agree to pay in robles, saying most contracts stipulated payment in euros or dollars. Wholesale gas prices in Europe have risen further recently on concerns about potential supply disruptions.
The Kremlin spokesman said, “According to the March 31 deadline set by Russia’s president, we are developing all payment methods to get a simple, understandable, and feasible system for relevant European and international buyers,”
The markets and prices of more commodities like the zinc stearate emulsion would be affected because of the volatile international political situations.
