It does matter. Countries that aren’t sanctioning Russia, are getting their oil from them cheap.

Yet oil price for the rest of the world is going up for the past month.
Op is talking about the supply/demand curves. Sanctions etc shifts the curves up or down but they have to meet somewhere. That juncture is going up in dollars.

From what I’m reading, it doesn’t appear to be going up for Russia. They’re still selling their oil for a large bargain.
“Russian oil traditionally sells at a discount to international benchmarks such as Brent. The discount, has widened since the imposition of sanctions and now stands at some $25-$30 per barrel to dated Brent.”
AND
As winter sets in and demand for oil increases, the limited supply will increase prices worldwide, but it may not increase the price of Russias oil nearly as much.
