Amid the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration is set to announce a ban on Russian oil and natural gas imports as soon as Tuesday. 

While a series of economic sanctions have already been placed on Russia, none have been so far-reaching as a complete oil ban. 

Biden will speak Tuesday morning to announce “actions to continue to hold Russia accountable for its unprovoked and unjustified war on Ukraine,” the White House said in a statement.
