There is indeed a fuel shortage in Russia , but the government headed by Mikhail Mishustin is taking care of solving this problem.

This statement was made by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, Censor.NET reports with reference to RBC-Ukraine .

What does Putin say?

In particular, he decided not to hide the fact that Russia had fuel problems, but in fact shifted the responsibility for solving them to the government .

According to him, a special commission has been created to resolve the situation, which is already working on the problem. Putin did not explain what exactly this commission is doing.

Putin calls fuel crisis an “inconvenience”

However, the Russian dictator refused to recognize the gasoline shortage in the Russian Federation as a serious crisis , despite the fact that it affected more than 70% of Russian gas stations .

Putin began to claim that this was only “some inconvenience” for the population , and that the government should control the situation.

By the way, the day before, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak reported on the ” second stage of tension ” in the Russian fuel market.
