Last week alone, Russia exported €5.41 billion worth of fossil fuels.
Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Russia has earned €549.5 billion from fossil fuel exports.
This is evidenced by data from the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA).
Of this amount, European Union countries purchased more than €180 billion worth of fossil fuels.
According to Center analysts, imports of Russian fossil fuels into the EU have been falling steadily since late March, more than halving in value terms from pre-invasion levels.
“Although the EU remains the largest importer of Russian fossil fuels, it is now only marginally ahead of China,” it said.
According to preliminary estimates, just last week Russia exported fossil fuels worth 5.41 billion euros, namely: oil – 2.66 billion euros, petroleum products and chemicals – 1.27 billion euros, gas – 0.98 billion euros and coal – by 0.5 billion euros.
Tankers owned or insured by European or G7 countries have been loaded with €1.94 billion worth of fossil fuels, helping to finance Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
The top five largest importers included China, India, Turkey, the EU and Brazil.
Earlier it was reported that the Russian oil company earned a billion euros in Bulgaria.
