9:07 pm
of all time. lots of people wishing him well. that is the latest from here in doha. another thrilling match but it is argentina again who will now progress. back to you, lewis. and a reminder there's much more on our website, including what it's like to spend the day with brazilian fans watching their team at the world cup. just log on to bbc.com/news. there's been more criticism of moves to put a cap on the price of russian oil, this time from ukraine. the limit of £60 a barrel was agreed on friday, by the european union and the g7, in an attempt to restrict funding for russia's war in ukraine. but president zelensky has said it's too high to have any serious impact on russia's economy.
9:08 pm
louisa pilbeam has more. the latest russian missile strike in kharkiv. more destruction and suffering, in a war that is showing no sign of ending. but a move by the g7, the world's seven largest advanced economies, australia and the european union, to cap the price of russian oil, is hoped to bring an end to this war closer. they've agreed to restrict the price of russian oil at $60 a barrel, hoping to wound russia with another financial sanction. this price cap has three objectives. first, it strengthens the effect of our sanction. second, it will further diminish russia's revenues. and thirdly, at the same time, it will stabilise global energy markets. the limit will come in on monday, after the eu persuaded poland to back the plan after warsaw
9:09 pm
initially considered it too high. and some market experts believe it's more of a symbol of rebellion against the kremlin than a realistic financial weapon. they want one measure in place to suddenly contribute to that discount being bigger, but not as large as some wanted, and the fact it's taken the eu so long to agree on a cap is because some countries which tend to be hawkish on russia wanted that cap to be much lower. other experts say sanctions like this are hurting russia, but president vladimir putin is still making huge amounts of money through oil. the kremlin denounced the scheme, saying it would not supply those countries which enforced a price cap. before the war, more than half of russia's oil exports went to europe, but russia has found new markets in india and china, and new money to fund its war. louisa pilbeam, bbc news.
9:10 pm
lucia van geuns is an energy adviser at the hague centre for strategic studies, which provides advice on geopolitical, defence and security issues to governments. she gave us her analysis of the price cap. first, obviously, we already had six months�* time to actually see how this eu boycott will actually take place and how it will affect, that will take effect on monday. on top of that, now there is this oil cap, which was very much promoted by the g7 and specifically the united states. so $60 as it's now, it's been put, you know, it remains to be seen whether it really hurts moscow very much, because effectively, there is already a price cap on russian maritime oil, given that, for instance, turkey, but also the middle east and of course, india and china already pay their oil, russian oil with the discount. i see. and some countries were asking
9:11 pm
or lobbying or suggesting an even lower cap, $30, for example. and we've just heard from president zelensky of ukraine, describing this as not serious, saying it's quite comfortable for moscow. what do you make of that? yeah, well, to a certain extent, i agree with that. i mean, moscow or russia pays around 35, $30—40, if you like, to actually technically, if you like, produce the oil and transport it until the harbour. and then eventually that makes some money on top of that, given the actual world oil price and it already is paying or actually it's selling their oil with a discount. so the discount is around $65 now for, say, india. so all in all, this is not that much lower. and what about these, could you just talk us through out of these idea of shadow tankers that moscow has been employing? yeah, well, apparently, i mean, a lot of older tankers or tankers in general, either large or small, they have been bought by russia to eventually use that in order to sell their oil, you know,
9:12 pm
to to customers who eventually would not take part of that oil cap idea, which the eu and the g7 wants that oil to be distributed. so all in all, they are actually creating, if you like, a shadow tankerfleet, such that that oil can still find the market and still find customers. relatives of a palestinian man shot dead by israeli troops in the occupied west bank this week have told the bbc there was no justification for his killing. 21—year—old raed al—naasan was one of four men killed in similar circumstances in a single day. eu diplomats have expressed corncern over the spiralling death toll and the un has warned of another "boiling point". a warning you may find this report by our middle east correspondent tom bateman distressing.
9:13 pm
wailing. in this village, they grieve another lost son. and these days of mourning are arriving more and more often. this man was shot by israeli soldiers on tuesday, one of four palestinians killed by confrontations with troops in different villages that day. the un says it's been the deadliest year for palestinians in the occupied west bank for nearly two decades. this is a small village and yet thousands have turned out and every time these funerals happen, for palestinians, it is spreading the sense of anger. gunshots. his family says their village feels powerless against the soldiers and settlers nearby.
