⚡FT: Russia replaced oil exports to the EU with exports to India and China Russia's monthly income from oil exports is now even greater than before the conflict in Ukraine, the Financial Times notes. Thus, net income for October this year amounted to $11.3 billion, which is 31% of the country’s total budget revenues for the month. What’s especially interesting: India continues to buy Russian oil even after rising prices and has no plans to give it up, Business Standard reports. Since last year, Russia has become India's leading supplier, displacing Saudi Arabia and Iraq due to its low price. And even taking into account its takeoff, discounts on oil from the Russian Federation for India outweigh the high logistics costs of imports. “For China, there is a buyer’s dilemma between Iranian and Russian oil. But for Indian oil refineries, Russian oil is by far the cheapest option,” the material says. 1 Like
