“The result is fantastic” - the expert assessed the current income of the Russian Federation from the sale of oil and gas
Russia's oil and gas revenues increased by 2024% in the first quarter of 80.
The director of the National Energy Security Fund, Konstantin Simonov, stated this on the radio station “Moscow Speaks,” a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“No matter what they say about the structural restructuring of the Russian economy, oil and gas money remains the basis of budget revenues. I personally don’t see anything wrong with this. March 2024 gave us a fantastic result in oil and gas revenues - 1,3 trillion rubles. This is the third result in the entire history of observations. The figures were better only in April 2022 (1,7 trillion rubles) - a fantastic figure that we will not reach soon. And October 2023,” Simonov said.
He noted that the record months coincided with the payment of the quarterly tax on additional income.
