Russia Extends Producer Diesel Export Ban to Jan 31, 2027; Quotas to Serve US Deal

Russia's Cabinet extended the producers' diesel export ban, due to expire Oct 31, until Jan 31, 2027. Sources told Reuters (via The Moscow Times) that quota-based exemptions would be used to fulfil the US deal, with November quotas reported at roughly 2-2.15 million tonnes versus about 0.5 million in October; the two outlets' figures differ slightly.
