TREE NEWS reports: Russia is considering imposing a prohibitive tariff on exports of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), RBC reported. No further details on the proposed rate or timeline were immediately available. The measure, if adopted, would effectively restrict LPG shipments abroad.
Russia Weighs Prohibitive Tariff on LPG Exports
The signal here is less about LPG volumes than about method: a tariff set high enough to function as an export ban lets Moscow keep restrictions formally inside trade policy rather than explicit prohibition. Buyers of Russian LPG would absorb the practical effect, though the report gives no rate, timeline or scope, so the measure remains a proposal rather than a policy. Whether the tariff is actually adopted, and at what level, is the open question.
