MOSCOW, September 14 - RIA Novosti. The volume of Russian petroleum products that fell from the world market due to the export ban is significant and is capable of influencing world markets, said press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov.

Answering questions from journalists about the situation on the global oil products market, Peskov noted that Russia decided to introduce a ban on the export of oil products in order, first of all, to ensure conditions for saturating the domestic market.
