Poland calls for sanctions on Russian energy

Poland’s climate minister has called for "immediate sanctions" on Russian oil and gas.

The agenda for today is primarily focussed on gas stocks and supplies, following Gazprom’s decision to cut off Poland and Bulgaria.

But Ms Moskva said fresh energy sanctions were a "necessary" and "urgent" step.

"We will support full sanctions on all Russian fossil fuels. We already have coal. Now it’s time for oil and second step is for gas. The best option is to take them all together" - she said

The European Commission has been holding talks with member states about a potential oil embargo
