Putin Restricts Russian Energy Data as Ukraine War, Oil Supply and Refinery Pressures Grow

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a new decree further restricting the disclosure of information about Russia’s energy sector and petroleum products. The move comes as Ukrainian attacks have disrupted Russian refineries and Moscow faces continuing Western sanctions and pressure on its fuel market. The latest restrictions also coincide with a broader expansion of Russia’s military and fresh Ukrainian claims that North Korean troops could be deployed to support Moscow’s war effort.
