[Russian Presidential Press Secretary: West Must Lift Sanctions Against Russia to Replenish Global Energy Market] On September 15, Russian Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov stated that Ukraine attempted to attack a Russian energy facility in the early hours of the day. He also pointed out that the West must lift sanctions against Russia to replenish the global energy market. Peskov stated that Russian oil products rely on a safe shipping environment to enter the global market, but Ukraine has no intention of guaranteeing this safe passage, and ships from other countries have already suffered losses as a result. Peskov pointed out that Russia is taking comprehensive measures to ensure the safety of refineries in order to stabilize the domestic oil product market. He also stated that Russia has seen US President Trump's remarks regarding a Russia-Ukraine energy truce, and Russia has consistently advocated resolving conflicts peacefully. While a Russia-Ukraine "energy truce" would help replenish Russia's domestic oil product market, Russia itself possesses the ability to stabilize its market even without a "truce." (CCTV News)
