forces we've heard in the last few minutes, some sharing in the area believe in the southwest. or we cannot confirm as to whether that is actually along the route to mariel. but as i say, it's hoped that this a jameson laws will manage to get out some of the hundreds of thousands of civilians trapped in mariel for a place where it's been reported, there is no electricity, no running water. we've heard reports of dead civilians on the streets. so it's going to be very interesting to diagnose board to see whether they saw holes or these buses make you into mariel and bring some of those trump civilians out, rushes deputy prime minister says crude oil prices could climb to of a $300.00 per barrel if the u. s. into european union benz imports of oil from
2:20 pm
russia, president joe biden is yet to decide whether to impose oil sanctions on russia. he is broad bipartisan support in congress, but his disagreements over how and where the u. s. would get alternative supplies. my kind of reports from washington dc. the u. s. motorist is already feeling the pain. the price of gas is now at its highest level since the economic crash in 2008 . and this could rise even further, should the us decide to impose sanctions on russian oil. no decision has been made at this point by the president about an been an import, a ban on importing oil from russia. and those discussions are ongoing internally. and also with our counterparts and partners in europe and around the world, i would know that what the present is most focused on is ensuring we are continuing to take steps to deliver punishing economic consequences on certain well taking all
2:21 pm
action necessary to limit the impact to prices at the gas time, the u. s. is the world's largest oil producer, but is also the largest consumer and remains dependent. unimportant, foreign oil. 8 percent of oil imported in the us comes from russia and the bided administration is seeking ways to make up the shortfall should impose sanctions. the white house confirmed a high level team visited venezuela this weekend to discuss among other issues, energy matters. there's also been speculation about importing oil from iran, while this broad bipartisan support, oil sanctions against russia in congress. this theory, among republicans about any suggestion that countries like venezuela or iran could make up the shortfall. we should be drilling for oil and gas that we own to replace what we buy from potent and the idea of getting gas from iran to make up for the
2:22 pm
last we received from russia is insane. you'd be taking gas revenue away from a dictator, a war criminal in increasing revenue for a religious nazi the toll of iran. that is the dumbest idea i've ever heard. we are producing over a 1000000 bowers, lots of dave and we were just a couple years ago. we have the capability to do it. i think that's a much better strategy, begging saudi arabia to produce more or cutting a deal with a narco terrorist and the durham and venezuela, which wouldn't even lead to enough oil anyways. or some, you know, crazy iran deal that almost guaranteed to be a nuclear weapons policy. underlying the bite and administration's deliberations about oil sanctions against russia. our domestic political concerns. prices at the pump and electric rail in us politics and looming ahead, late to the mid term elections in which high gas prices could have severe
2:23 pm
consequences for the administration in charge. regardless of the reason my kind of out here a washington or cornelia mayor, is an economist and oil and gas specialist. she says a u. s. oil band is unlikely to have a huge impact on russia. the impact to russ i will be minimal for the us banning because only one percent of russian oil exports go to to, to, to, to the us. and for the us it's easy to say that because only 3 percent of their imports and the majority of what they consume, they produce themselves said a largest oil producer, come from russia for europe. it's a very, very different ball game for the u. s. the implications is if, if oil, if, if them, if it manages to convince the europeans to join and i, and, and there's less oil going towards europe and the u. s. it will price the world
2:24 pm
prices, it will bring the global oil prices up. and the consumer will feel that the pump all bets are off. if europe also bands oil, if it's just the u. s, i don't think anything will happen. but mind you, you know, if russian oil russian all the, had a hard time finding a homer last week and it did the chinese and the indians just waited until the discount was high enough and then bought. so russian oil will find the home. it's not the same for gas, but russian oil will find the home even if the europeans choose not to buy it. in other news, a south korean naval ship has 5 warning shots at a north korean patrol boat that briefly crossed the country's disputed western sea boundary. the north korean bo was chasing an unarmed vessel but retreated after warning. shots were fired. south korean military officials seized the vessel questioned its 7 crew members. robert bryan has more from salt. this incident
