The Russian trade surplus eased slightly to $12.08 billion in September of 2026 from $12.24 billion in the corresponding period of the previous year, although trade turnover increased sharply. Exports rose by 12% annually to $42.6 billion, supported by higher foreign turnover on energy commodities as the blockade of tankers leaving the Persian Gulf drove global oil and fuel prices to surge, increasing Asian demand for Russian oil alternatives. Energy exports were capped as strikes on Russian refineries by Ukrainian drones drove Moscow to prohibit the export of diesel. Meanwhile, goods inflation and an increased connection to financial systems of non-Western countries drove imports up by 18.3% to $30.53 billion. source: Central Bank of Russia
