Germany has imported almost no crude oil from Russia in the past two years. 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.
