Government measures to stabilize the fuel market are yielding results, with retail restrictions already being lifted in several regions, the number of operational filling stations growing, and queues shrinking, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak told the Vesti news program.

"Of course, the situation remains tense in certain regions today, and we discussed with oil companies in a targeted, hands-on manner how to supply these specific regions with petroleum products," Novak said.
