According to the representative of the Russian company Sergei Kupriyanov, the annual peak of foreign exchange rates was recorded on August 9, and the reason for this may be the clashes in the Sudzha district.
The events in the Kursk region led to an increase in prices for natural gas and liquefied natural gas, this was stated by the official representative of Gazprom, Sergei Kupriyanov.
According to him, although it was still summer, some problems with gas arose. The reason for this was the violation of the state border, where serious clashes took place on the fourth day.
“The events in the Sudzha region led to a sharp increase in prices for both natural gas and LNG. The annual peak of foreign exchange rates was recorded on August 9. Now the question arises: who benefits from this?” – said Sergei Kupriyanov.
Separately, a representative of Russia’s Gazprom added that planned maintenance work at facilities in the Norwegian gas industry could be a significant factor.
It is claimed that analysts do not rule out the possibility that the work will be postponed, as was noted last year, and therefore “the upward trend in gas prices will continue.”
Let us recall that on August 9, Russian partisans reported an advance in the Kursk region. Within three days of the fighting, the Kremlin lost control of 3% of the Kursk region. During this time, the “liberated” area could grow from 250 square meters. Pro-Ukrainian partisans from the Russian Freedom Legion said that m had grown to almost a thousand.
CNN also suggested why Ukraine launched an operation in the Kursk region. According to journalists, the possibility of ending the war through negotiations is getting closer and therefore both sides will try to improve their positions on the battlefield before starting a dialogue.
