“In October, Russia shipped 946,000 barrels of oil per day to India, the highest in a month, or 22% of India's total crude oil imports,” The Economic Times quoted the company as saying.

It is noted that the share of Iraq accounted for 20.5% of October deliveries, and the share of Saudi Arabia - 16%.

On September 23, Bloomberg reported that the European Union may soon set a ceiling on oil prices from Russia.

As noted in the Kremlin, if Russian oil does not go to Europe, then it will go in alternative directions to those countries that operate on market conditions.

Artyom Deev, head of the analytical department at AMarkets, in an interview with FAN, assessed the potential for increasing the volume of Russian oil trade with countries such as South Korea, Vietnam, South America and Africa.
