Investing.com -- Russia is considering extending its gasoline export ban for oil producers into October, according to Russian state-run news agency RIA.
The report, published Thursday, cited Vitaly Korolev, deputy head of the country’s anti-monopoly watchdog FAS, who indicated that all options remained under consideration.
Korolev emphasized that meeting domestic demand was the government’s top priority as officials weigh their decision.
Last week, the Russian government had already extended the existing ban on gasoline exports until September 30.
Russia has been experiencing gasoline shortages in some regions following Ukrainian strikes on oil refineries. These supply disruptions have coincided with high seasonal fuel demand from farmers and motorists.
