Heads up! 🚨 Russian President Vladimir Putin has slammed the latest U.S. sanctions on Rosneft and Lukoil as an "unfriendly act," but he’s confident it won’t hurt Russia’s economy. 🇷🇺💼
Speaking in Moscow on October 23, Putin accused Washington of turning up the heat while warning that a hit to global oil supply could send pump prices soaring. For many of us in South and Southeast Asia where scooters are king even a small price bump at the petrol station can add up fast. 🛵⛽️
The sanctions came just as U.S. President Donald Trump announced he’d skip a meeting with Putin in Budapest on the Ukraine conflict. 🤝❌ With energy markets on edge, fuel price watch is officially on. 🔍📈
