China and India, two of the world’s largest consumers of Russian crude oil, have temporarily suspended their purchases for the month of March.

This decision comes as a result of the escalating sanctions imposed on Russia and the significant rise in shipping costs. The suspension is expected to have a profound impact on the global oil market, particularly for countries that heavily rely on Russian crude exports. The United States and other nations have been closely monitoring the situation, as the reduced demand from China and India could lead to further fluctuations in oil prices and supply chain disruptions.
