MOSCOW, October 12. /TASS/. Russia's domestic market will not suffer from increased diesel fuel exports, and supplies will remain sufficient to complete all seasonal agricultural work, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said in an interview with the Vesti news program.

"As for the domestic market, it is a priority for us, and it is fully supplied with diesel fuel since the capacity of our oil refineries significantly exceeds production. Today, agricultural operations, including harvesting and sowing, are fully covered, as are the 'Northern Delivery' initiative and the domestic market as a whole," Novak said.

He noted that Russia has the capacity to provide additional supplies to global markets, including the US. "This will help balance the situation, which is currently quite complex due to issues in the Strait of Hormuz and a general reduction in global refining capacity caused by disrupted infrastructure and logistics," the deputy prime minister explained.
