The Russia bans gasoline exports measure will start on 29 July and, for the first time, apply to fuel producers as well. Interfax reports that the Kremlin announced the full restriction to stabilize the domestic fuel market amid peak summer demand. Liga notes that the ban could also be prolonged into September if the situation does not improve.

Sanctions on Russian oil and refined products have cut export revenues and reduced access to parts and buyers. At the same time, the war drives enormous military fuel consumption, while Ukrainian attacks on fuel facilities and transport routes disrupt production and logistics. These pressures collide with seasonal demand peaks from farming during summer, creating domestic shortages. To keep enough fuel for internal needs, Moscow has turned to export bans as a stopgap measure.
