Will petrol prices rise?
Petrol prices are unlikely to rise directly because of these sanctions. The UK stopped importing Russian oil directly in 2022. However, some Russian oil still reaches the UK indirectly, often refined in other countries. These new sanctions aim to further restrict Russia's revenue, which could have a longer-term, indirect impact on global oil prices.
