Russia will weaken the ban on fuel export: the Kremlin found the original reason

Russia is gradually restoring fuel exports, as the government believes that fuel export restrictions have led to an increase in world prices, and some buyers had to look for alternative sources of gasoline and diesel. From October 6, the Russian government refuses to ban exporting diesel fuel through ports. In this case, gasoline exports will continue to be banned. This was reported by the press service of the Government of the Russian Federation.

The message states that the export of diesel fuel supplied to seaports by pipeline transport occurs without restrictions, but only if the manufacturer supplies at least 50% of the diesel fuel produced to the domestic market. "Restrictions on fuel exports from Russia, which is the world's largest fuel exporter, ahead of the United States, led to an increase in world prices and forced some buyers to look for alternative sources of gasoline and diesel," the statement said.

"They do not have enough fuel because their logistics is choked," the expert explains. "All their" heavy "oil filled all tanks, so they cannot physically produce fuel even for their market. Belarus works for Russia to somehow improve their the situation, "he said.

The government even organized daily monitoring of fuel purchase for the needs of agricultural producers with prompt adjustment of volumes.
