The head of the Federal Antimonopoly Service, Maxim Shaskolsky, said that a paradoxical situation with jet fuel prices has developed in Russia. Demand for jet fuel is falling, while its prices continue to rise.


 Shaskolsky spoke about this in an interview with RBC.

“There is liquefied hydrocarbon gas, for which the price has fallen three times since the beginning of the year and is now the lowest in history.

Gasoline on the wholesale market is declining.

And the price of aviation kerosene is growing, although demand is declining, ”the head of the FAS comments on what is happening.

At the same time, he clarified that today the rise in the price of jet fuel does not affect the cost of air tickets.



The service will continue to monitor price dynamics in the jet fuel market.
