Russian oil prices and revenues surge amid global market conditions

Russian officials say the country's oil is now selling at market prices or even at a premium, with strong global demand. Deputy Prime Minister Aleksandr Novak stated Russian oil trades without a discount, and the Kremlin highlighted high global demand.

This has led to a significant increase in state revenue. The price of Russian oil used for taxation has exceeded the government's budget target, and overall oil revenues have reached a four-year high.
