在特朗普政府此前因俄罗斯对乌行动取消与普京会晤、北约宣布援乌武器等一系列动作后，美国在对俄 施压方面再出重磅举措。 美国财政部正式宣布，已对俄罗斯两大石油巨头：卢克石油公司与俄罗斯石油公司实施经济制裁，进一 步加码对俄关键经济领域的限制。 此次美国财政部推出的制裁措施覆盖范围明确，不仅适用于卢克石油公司和俄罗斯石油公司这两家母公 司，还将效力延伸至其旗下34家子公司。 更值得关注的是，制裁规则特别指出，即便部分实体未被直接列入制裁名单，只要其股权有超过50%由 卢克石油公司或俄罗斯石油公司控制，同样需受这些限制措施约束，这意味着制裁将全面覆盖两大石油 公司的核心关联业务实体，避免出现"规避制裁"的漏洞。 美国财政部在声明中进一步澄清了制裁的具体影响：一方面，被制裁的卢克石油公司、俄罗斯石油公司 及其关联实体，其在美国境内的所有资产将依法被冻结，无法进行资金支取、资产处置等操作。 尽管目前尚未明确欧盟第19项制裁的具体内容，但从过往欧盟对俄制裁的整体思路来看，其举措往往与 美国等盟友形成协同，多围绕能源、贸易、科技等领域展开，此次同步批准新制裁，无疑进一步强化了 美西方阵营对俄的联合施压态势。 从事件关联来看， ...

据央视新闻，当地时间23日，欧盟外交与安全政策高级代表卡拉斯宣布，欧盟正式通过对俄罗斯第19轮制裁。 当天早些时候，欧盟成员国就第19轮对俄制裁措施达成一致。根据欧盟委员会此前发表的声明，本轮对俄制裁主要涉及能源、金融等领域。欧盟 将从2027年起禁止俄罗斯液化天然气进入欧洲市场，并将俄罗斯原油价格上限下调至每桶47.6美元；俄罗斯石油公司、俄罗斯天然气工业石油公 司将面临全面交易禁令；欧盟将扩大对俄罗斯等国金融机构的交易禁令，并首次将加密货币平台纳入制裁。 报道说，在能源价格、减排目标、本国汽车产业等方面的诉求得到满足后，斯洛伐克成为最后一个同意本轮制裁措施的欧盟成员国。 受此消息影响，国际油价周四延续涨幅，目前涨超3%；天然气价格涨幅不大。 华尔街见闻此前提到， 在与俄罗斯的外交努力陷入僵局后，特朗普政府采取了迄今为止最严厉的经济施压措施，首次对俄罗斯最大的两家石油公 司——俄罗斯石油公司（Rosneft）和卢克石油公司（Lukoil）实施制裁。 分析认为，此次制裁的核心目标是"削弱"俄罗斯的资金流。 随着Rosneft和Lukoil被列入名单，美国现已对俄罗斯全部四家最大的石油公司实施了制裁。其中，Ro ...

在与俄罗斯的外交努力陷入僵局后，特朗普政府采取了迄今为止最严厉的经济施压措施，首次对俄罗斯最大的两家石油公司——俄罗斯石油公司 （Rosneft）和卢克石油公司（Lukoil）实施制裁。 据《环球时报》报道，美俄两国元首原定在布达佩斯的会晤计划被搁置。特朗普表示，他不想举行一场"毫无意义的会面"。美媒分析认为，会晤推迟的核心 原因是双方在乌克兰停火问题上存在"根本性分歧"。 美俄元首会晤生变为后续的经济施压埋下了伏笔。美国财政部宣布的制裁决定，标志着特朗普政府首次就俄乌冲突对俄罗斯施加直接的经济成本。美国财政 部长贝森特表示，美国已准备好采取进一步行动。 此次制裁的核心目标是"削弱"俄罗斯的资金流。 此前，拜登政府曾在1月份制裁了俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司 (Gazprom Neft) 和苏尔古特石油天然气公司 (Surgutneftegas)，但出于对推高全球能源价格的担 忧，未对Rosneft和Lukoil采取行动。 最新制裁意味着俄罗斯四大石油巨头现已全部受到美国制裁。消息发布后，市场对俄罗斯原油供应可能中断的担忧加剧，推动国际原油价格上涨超过4%。 制裁意在切断资金流，或影响俄对亚洲出口 据媒体报道，在 ...

Core Viewpoint - Russia's recent large-scale reduction of its RMB assets has sparked widespread speculation about potential shifts in Sino-Russian relations, despite experts suggesting this is a normal market adjustment rather than a sign of deteriorating ties [3][16]. Group 1: Background and Context - Following the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in 2022, Western nations froze approximately $300 billion of Russia's overseas assets, primarily in USD and EUR, prompting Russia to seek alternative currencies for its foreign exchange reserves [1][5]. - The share of RMB assets in Russia's foreign exchange reserves peaked at around 17% by the end of 2023, with a total value exceeding $15 billion, driven by increased trade settlements in RMB, particularly in energy transactions [8][10]. Group 2: Recent Developments - As of September 2025, Russia's total international reserves reached $713.3 billion, with foreign exchange reserves at $431 billion, while the RMB asset holdings have significantly decreased, potentially falling below $30 billion [3][10]. - The total value of RMB assets that Russia has reduced since their peak has surpassed $45 billion, leading to speculation about the depth of the Sino-Russian partnership [5][14]. Group 3: Economic Implications - The Russian economy has shown signs of instability, with a growing budget deficit and fluctuating ruble exchange rates, which have led to increased domestic demand for RMB for imports from China [10][11]. - In 2024, bilateral trade between China and Russia reached a record $244.8 billion, with 95% of transactions settled in RMB and rubles, indicating a significant shift in trade dynamics [10][12]. Group 4: Central Bank Actions - The Central Bank of Russia has implemented measures to stabilize the ruble, including increasing the daily sale of foreign currency and RMB, while also issuing RMB-denominated bonds to alleviate liquidity issues [10][11][14]. - By October 2025, the Central Bank's strategy involved a systematic reduction of remaining euro-denominated assets, focusing on maintaining gold, rubles, and RMB as core reserve assets [11][14]. Group 5: Market Reactions and Future Outlook - Analysts view the recent asset adjustments as a normal market response rather than an indication of a strategic shift, with Russia's total reserves having increased by 20% since 2022 [16]. - The ongoing evolution of the international monetary system is seen as gradually diminishing the dominance of the USD, while the RMB's role in international reserves continues to grow, positively impacting Sino-Russian economic relations [16].

另外，欧盟内部也并非铁板一块。冯德莱恩推动这么激烈的制裁，很大程度上是为了掩盖欧盟内部的分歧。中欧的一些国家，如匈牙利和斯洛伐克，深受俄 罗斯能源依赖，因此多次在制裁问题上制造阻力。比如，在2024年，匈牙利就否决了第16轮制裁中禁止俄罗斯农产品进口的提案，而波兰和匈牙利也曾因制 裁问题激烈争执，导致对俄罗斯煤炭禁运的条款被删除。 9月19日，欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩宣布了第19轮对俄制裁方案，然而这一次的制裁引发了不少争议。表面上看，欧盟好像在对俄罗斯出手，但细一琢磨， 发现制裁的重点似乎是中国的炼油厂和石油贸易商。难道欧盟不仅要打击俄罗斯，还暗藏了想要"收拾"中国的意图吗？ 然而，冯德莱恩的言论并不完全成立。她所谓的"俄罗斯石油收入下降90%"，指的仅仅是欧盟的市场。事实上，俄罗斯早就将其石油出口的重心转向了亚 洲。欧盟的制裁看似强硬，但却没有考虑到俄罗斯市场的调整。 冯德莱恩的这轮制裁可谓相当严厉。原油的价格上限被直接从每桶60美元降低到了47.6美元，这意味着俄罗斯的石油收入将大幅缩水。冯德莱恩在新闻发布 会上气吞山河，表示过去三年俄罗斯在欧洲的石油收入已经下降了90%，并且这次制裁将进一步"关紧水龙头 ...
