Putin Acknowledges Russia Faces Fuel Supply Problems
Russian President Vladimir Putin said fuel supply problems persist for motorists and businesses, including queues at gas stations, as Moscow weighs measures to stabilize the domestic market after refinery outages.
“You know very well that problems for motorists and businesses persist. Unfortunately, there are also queues at gas stations,” Putin said at a late Sunday televised meeting with oil executives and government officials. “The right grade of gasoline isn’t always available right now.”
