Russian President Vladimir Putin commented on the situation with rising fuel prices during a meeting with the government on Wednesday, September 27. According to the head of state, the authorities and oil companies must react to this problem more quickly.
The day before, information appeared in the press that fuel prices are rising again on the stock exchange in our country, and the effect of the ban on the export of gasoline and diesel lasted only a few days . There is still a shortage of fuel in the regions. Wholesale quantities of AI-92 and AI-95 were up 2% and 1.3% on Wednesday, September 27.
We remind you that earlier during the same meeting, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said that the Cabinet of Ministers proposes to introduce a complete ban on the export of fuel that was purchased on the market and not produced.

According to the Russian President, we must “closer cooperation” with companies so that they also understand their responsibility. So far, little has changed since the steps taken by the authorities: fuel measures have been taken in Russia, but gasoline prices are rising.
“The retail price is rising,” Putin stressed. — Measures have been taken, but prices are rising. What happens in other links is of little interest to consumers. The consumer needs results.”
Mk previously stated that Novák informed the head of state about the removal of traders who used unfair practices from trading.
