Sanctions-Hit Russia Imports Fuel from India Despite Being a Top Oil Producer

Russia, once the world's largest oil-product exporter, has been forced to import refined fuels such as gasoline from India.

While the volume of these imports remains relatively modest, the shift marks a striking reversal for a country that long dominated global oil-product exports. The situation also adds logistical costs to Russia's already sanctions-strained energy sector.
