Russia is turning to India to bolster its gasoline supplies following sustained Ukrainian drone attacks targeting its oil refining capacity. Recent strikes have significantly disrupted domestic fuel production, creating a growing shortage within the country. Moscow is now actively seeking to import gasoline from India to mitigate the impact of these disruptions. This marks a shift in the usual dynamic, as Russia is typically a major gasoline exporter. Indian refiners, benefiting from discounted Russian crude, have increased gasoline output and now possess surplus supply. The extent and details of potential import deals are still emerging, but the situation highlights the vulnerability of Russia’s energy infrastructure to Ukrainian attacks and its reliance on alternative sources to maintain fuel stability. This development could also impact global gasoline markets.
