Gasoline prices rising in Russia owing to seasonal activity, stocks close to maximum – Energy Ministry
MOSCOW. July 24 (Interfax) – The current situation on the fuel market remains stable, with gasoline and diesel stocks at nearly all-time high levels, thus fully ensuring uninterrupted supplies to the domestic market, Russia’s Energy Ministry said on Wednesday.
“The rise in gasoline prices is owing to the seasonal increase in demand, including the activity of motorists and tourist trips during the summer holidays, while the situation with diesel has stabilized, with prices not demonstrating any significant fluctuations,” the ministry said.
“Particular attention is being paid to providing the agricultural sector, with supplies of diesel to agricultural producers occurring as usual, with no shortages expected,” the ministry said.
