Federação Russa Balança Comercial

Russia’s trade surplus narrowed to $7.47 billion in August 2025, down from $8.65 billion a year earlier. Exports fell 8.9% year-on-year to $31.53 billion, the lowest level since January, mainly due to weaker demand from China, which cut its crude oil purchases during the month. Imports also dropped by 7.3% to $24.06 billion, reflecting subdued domestic demand and the impact of Western sanctions that continue to limit access to foreign goods and technology.
