RUSSIA: Trump Reiterates Potential for "Massive" Tariffs for Russia
RUSSIA
- US President Donald Trump reiterated that he will impose “massive” tariffs on Russia and “big” sanctions if it doesn’t settle the war in Ukraine, according to his interview on Fox News.
- Gas production in Russia rose 7.4% to 708bcm in 2024 on the back of exports and stronger domestic demand, Kommersant report. Most independent producers reduced output throughout the year as they optimised oil production under the OPEC+ deal, but “analysts” cited by the newspaper expect gas production to fall in 2025 because of the loss of Ukrainian transit to Europe and a likely drop in domestic demand due to a warm winter.
- There are no major data releases or speaker events scheduled for today.
