Lukashenko wants Russian oil at $ 4 per barrel

8

In April 2020, Minsk expects to receive 2 million tons of oil from Russia at a price of about $ 4 per barrel. The Prime Minister of Belarus Sergey Rumas informed about this.

Rumas explained the low price of raw materials as “tough and consistent installation” when buying Russian oil without premiums, which gave the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko.



Today, I think Belneftekhim will finish negotiations with Russian companies on oil supplies for April. We expect to receive 2 million tons.

- said Rumas.

The head of state’s tough and consistent policy of buying Russian oil at no price premium is maintained by the government. The result of this position is the price at which we will buy oil in April from the Russian Federation - about $ 4 per barrel

- emphasized Rumas.

At the same time, Lukashenko gave an interview to the Interstate TV and Radio Company Mir, which was dedicated to the Day of Unity of the Peoples of Belarus and Russia (celebrated on April 2). The Belarusian leader said that Minsk does not renounce the Union State Treaty, but wants only equal conditions for integration.

This is the first. And secondly, where then will our sovereignty be?

- Lukashenko explained and at the same time asked a question.

According to Lukashenko, Moscow has always insisted that Minsk negotiate independently with Russian oil companies, but now, “when the roasted cock pecked,” she decided to decide on the suppliers herself.

We will determine here. Why should you determine? We pay money, we will hold a tender. No ... Whom there, in the Ministry of Economy of Russia, they will determine, they will supply. Is that normal?

- drew attention to Lukashenko.

Lukashenko explained that prior to this, oil was supplied to Belarus only by the companies of businessman Mikhail Gutseriev, but they allegedly began to "spread rot" on him.

Now they threw it out and say: no, they will supply Lukoil, Rosneft, Surgutneftegaz and others

- added Lukashenko.

Lukashenko believes that Russia "seems to have agreed on oil." At the same time, Belarus will still try to diversify oil supplies.

It should be added that on March 31, 2020, the representative of the Russian Transneft, Igor Demin, told reporters that in March 2020, only 278 thousand tons of oil were delivered to the Belorussian refinery - 246 thousand tons to the Polotsk oil refinery and 32 thousand tons to the Mozyr oil refinery . At the same time, in April 2020, Russian oil companies have already submitted applications for 1 million tons of oil - 375 thousand tons to the Polotsk oil refinery and 633 thousand tons to the Mozyr oil refinery. However, shippers at that time did not submit documents for the execution of route orders.

    This Wishlist voiced? We’ll wait and see how we agree. winked

    Lukashenko believes that Russia "seems to have agreed on oil."

    Keyword sort of. Why not tell me before the election. laughing

    The Belarusian leader said that Minsk does not renounce the Union State Treaty, but wants only equal conditions for integration. This is, firstly ...

    He wants conditions for himself, for people and so everything will be the same.

    And secondly, where then will our sovereignty be?

    In Karaganda. smile How did he get together in one state with sovereignty to live? request It remains only to add that Ukraine joined the European sanctions against Belarus, because they in their dictators are also listed as a killer of the opposition. In general, cooperation with Bandera, especially in the military sphere, ended. I would like to ask - well, But father, did yours help you ....? Naturally, in the light of such a turn, what remains for him? He was simply misunderstood, he is not against the union state, he simply bargains for his beloved conditions. After all, there’s nowhere else to go. request The economy is pouring in, and telling that the tractor has cured everyone no longer works.

    -Hey ..., yes ... Lukashenka is the same poor fellow ... just like our guarantor ...- Both are spinning, spinning, twisting ... as they can ... -Even Lukashenka is now in a more "advantageous" position, than our guarantor ... - Well, he (Lukashenko) will receive "cheap oil" and half of his problems will be immediately solved ... - But you can't say that about Russia ...
    - Well, what does Russia need today ... - to fill up Belarus with cheap oil ... under certain "mutual conditions" ... at least ...
    - It's just that our guarantor needs to knock the popularity out from under Lukashenka's feet and pull this "popular popularity" over to his side ... - Himself propose some joint projects; to be constantly on the "good hearing" of the Belarusian people ... - After all, everything that Belarus receives today (or it seems to her that she allegedly receives ... - in fact - only gives more and more) from China ... - All this she (Belarus) could receive from Russia ... and even on much favorable terms ...
    - And the confrontation "between-between" only adds to the popularity of Lukashenko ... - And for Putin, the "confrontation" between Russia and Belarus does not add any political weight ... - neither in Belarus, nor in Russia ... - So only Lukashenka wins .., although both Belarus and Russia are losing at the same time ... -Such a sad story ...
  5. It is a not at all possible - suddenly, at the most precious daddy Lu, the ass will stick together!

    Lukashenko wants Russian oil at $ 4 per barrel

    Lukashenko doesn’t just say that, he understands perfectly well that now, when the Russian Federation is so hard to add its oil, they will be glad to sell it at $ 4 per barrel.
