September 30, Pozirk<\/em><\/strong>. Belarus resumed gasoline exports to Russia in July after a pause since last autumn, Russia\u2019s RBC<\/em> reported. The increase is attributed to \u201chigh demand and unscheduled shutdowns of oil refineries\u201d caused by Ukrainian drone attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From July to September, nearly 97,000 tons of Belarusian petroleum products were sold through the St. Petersburg Exchange \u2014 a 36-percent increase compared with the same period in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In September alone, gasoline shipments from Belarusian refineries jumped 168 percent month on month, while diesel sales rose 83 percent, according to RBC<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although Belarus\u2019 fuel supplies are irregular, their resumption coincides with a shortage on the Russian market. While Belarus\u2019 overall market share remains small, its deliveries are viewed as an important short-term relief measure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, Belarus exported 45,000 tons of gasoline and 270,000 tons of diesel to Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since February 2022, when Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Belarus has supported the Kremlin by allowing Russian troops to attack from its territory and by supplying Moscow with weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
