RIA Novosti writes about this.
Novak emphasized that the country’s authorities can lift the restriction if there is an oversupply of fuel on the domestic market.
“This is a normal tool for regulating the balance (of supply and demand),” the Deputy Prime Minister said.
Separately, he emphasized that the Cabinet also does not see the need to adjust the fuel damper.
Earlier it became known that from March 1, the Russian government plans to ban the export of gasoline from the country for six months.
It is expected that the introduction of export restrictions will saturate the domestic fuel market during periods of high demand in spring and summer.
