Why Russia Is Buying Gasoline From India and How It Compares to Domestic Fuel

At least 60,000 tons of automotive gasoline have been shipped from India to Russia. Two tankers carrying the first fuel cargoes have already departed, although the specific refinery that supplied them has not been disclosed. According to industry sources, Russia plans to import around 400,000 tons of gasoline each month from several countries, including Belarus. Peak gasoline demand during the summer reaches approximately 110,000 tons per day, meaning the planned imports would be sufficient to cover nearly four days of consumption. Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin described the country's fuel shortage as manageable rather than critical. He acknowledged that queues had formed at some filling stations and that motorists were not always able to purchase their preferred fuel grade. The government has established a special round-the-clock task force to monitor the situation.
