In June, AI-95 gasoline rose by 11%, and AI-92 by 12%.<\/p>\n<p> Since the beginning of the year, the growth has been over 25%, which is already hitting the wallets of ordinary Russians noticeably.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;The expansion of current restrictions is being discussed &#8211; from traders and oil depots to direct producers, including key state players such as Rosneft. In parallel, the Kremlin is considering reducing compensation to oil companies under the damper mechanism &#8211; a tool designed to contain the growth of domestic fuel prices,&#8221; the intelligence agency reported.<\/p>\n<p> It is noted that despite the decline in world oil prices, Russian exports remain a stable source of foreign exchange earnings for the Russian economy.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;A complete ban on gasoline exports is likely to further undermine the industry&#8217;s profits and will not bring immediate relief to the domestic market,&#8221; the SZRU said.<\/p>\n<p> As a reminder, the head of the Bank of Russia, Elvira Nabiullina, stated that <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/dirky-v-biudzheti-bilshe-nemaie-chym-lataty-u-rosii-vyznaly-shcho-vycherpaly-ostanni-resursy-ekonomiky\/\">Russia has exhausted the resources that allowed the economy to demonstrate growth for two consecutive years in conditions of war and sanctions.<\/a><\/p>\n<p> As reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation, <a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/zamist-rozvytku-viyna-u-rf-skorochuiut-finansuvannia-kliuchovykh-haluzey-ekonomiky\/\">Russia has significantly reduced funding for science, industry, and innovation due to falling oil revenues and a budget deficit.<\/a><\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>\u201cPryamim\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> , and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Russia, gasoline prices have increased by more than 25% since the beginning of 2025.
