The new restrictions took effect on <strong>August 1<\/strong> and will remain in force until <strong>January 31, 2027<\/strong>, according to Russian media citing a government decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Russian government said the measures are intended to increase the availability of petroleum products on the domestic market and stabilize the country&#8217;s fuel supply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The decree temporarily bans exports of gasoline, diesel fuel, marine fuel, and gasoil. The previous export restrictions for Russian producers had been set to expire on <strong>July 31<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, beginning <strong>September 1<\/strong>, the restrictions will no longer apply to diesel fuel, marine fuel, and gasoil exported directly by producers under government-approved arrangements, including supplies to foreign countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Russia has also introduced a special fuel supply mechanism for the agricultural sector that will remain in effect until <strong>November 1<\/strong>. Officials say the measure is intended to ensure uninterrupted fuel deliveries during the seasonal farming campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier, repeated Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries during the first half of <strong>2026<\/strong> triggered a severe gasoline shortage across the country. In response, the Kremlin banned fuel exports, began importing fuel from <strong>Kazakhstan<\/strong> and <strong>India<\/strong>, and imposed restrictions at filling stations in several regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reports have also indicated that the fuel crisis has disrupted agricultural machinery operations and logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the same time, growth in Russia&#8217;s automotive market has begun to slow as the fuel crisis, driven by drone strikes on oil refining facilities, continues to affect the economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Media outlets have also reported that Russia is redirecting fuel supplies from Siberia to Moscow in an effort to prevent a widespread fuel shortage in the capital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia has extended its full ban on gasoline exports for another six months.
