Russia’s oil production this year is seen at 527m tons, down 7m tons compared to 2022, he said, adding that the domestic fuel market has stabilised.
  • The ruble may strengthen further, but any significant deviations of the exchange rate from the current level are unlikely, Maxim Oreshkin, the Kremlin’s aide for the economy said in an interview to local newspaper Moskovsky Komsomolets. He added that the share of the euro and dollar in Russia’s international payments is now about 25%, and that about a third of all imports are paid for in rubles.
