[Reports that European governments have
eased efforts to reduce trade in Russian oil.
Two months ago the European Union
announced a worldwide ban on the
provision of maritime insurance to vessels
carrying Russia oil.
However, the UK is yet to introduce similar
restrictions, which is pivotal because London
is at the centre of the marine insurance industry,
according to the paper.
Some international shipments are
being allowed amid fears of rising crude prices
and tighter energy supplies, it adds.]
