US expected to ban imports of Russian oil

US President Joe Biden is expected to announce a ban on US imports of Russian oil later today.

The announcement is expected to come as the latest sanction in response to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.

The White House said Biden is set to speak at 15:45 GMT to “announce actions to continue to hold Russia accountable for its unprovoked and unjustified war on Ukraine” .

Biden’s administration has been under increasing pressure from US lawmakers to take this step.
