Germany sharply decreased the import volume of crude oil from Russia to 3.49 metric tons in January 2023, and since August 2023, the figure has stayed at zero metric tons. The decrease was a response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The European Union (EU) and the United Kingdom (UK) banned imports of crude oil from Russia via seaports starting from December 5, 2022, while imports of seaborne oil products were banned from February 5, 2023. Over the observed period from the beginning of 2021, German crude oil imports from Russia peaked at more than 2.8 million metric tons in January 2022. Furthermore, Germany has imported no gas via pipelines from Russia since September 2022.
