Biden says U.S. will ban Russian oil, fuels to pressure Putin on war

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : While so-called self-sanctioning by the oil industry has limited some purchases of Russian barrels, an outright U.S. ban would further weigh on the market and increase volatility.
44% : The U.S. move will be matched in part by the U.K., which will announce a ban on Russian oil imports on Tuesday, though it will continue to allow natural gas and coal from the country.
