The report emphasizes that during the summer period, demand for fuel in Russia is very high, amounting to approximately 110 thousand tons per day.
Against this backdrop, the volume planned to be received from Kazakhstan is sufficient only to cover about half of the country's daily need.
Earlier, Reuters reported that negotiations had previously taken place between Moscow and Astana regarding the possible purchase of 50 thousand tons of AI-92 brand gasoline.
