Russia eases fuel standards to prevent crisis

This move comes amid disruptions in fuel supplies caused by decreased flows within several Russian regions and aims to meet the growing domestic demand amid deteriorating supplies and the pressures resulting from ongoing Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil infrastructure. The temporary measures, originally scheduled to end in May, have now been extended by the authorities to address the crisis.
