Russia doubled its diesel exports in October - from 135,000 to 271,000 barrels per day, reports the Financial Times with reference to Kepler.
The growth was made possible by a two-week pause in Ukraine's attacks on Russian refineries, following Washington's pressure on Kyiv. At the same time, not a single tanker with Russian diesel was unloaded in the United States due to the opposition of American politicians. Instead, supplies to Brazil, Turkey and other countries increased.
