“A proposed exception for oil delivered by pipeline earlier edged the EU towards finalising the deal to sanction Russia and squeeze its financial ability to wage war in Ukraine.”

For those confused, I’ll translate:

Hungary (and a few other countries) will continue to receive their cheap, reliable, oil supply from Russia via pipelines. Meanwhile the rest of Europe will have to pay far more to now get their Russian oil via brokers who will make it look like it came from other countries.

Perfect translation, Bob...you must specialize in languages...:-) It is amazing how few people understand that this isn’t going to hurt Russia at all.
