MOSCOW, September 14 (RIA Novosti) - The Russian government is planning to adjust export tariffs on oil and oil products to contain inflation, Russian Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin said Tuesday.
"Proposals are being prepared on adjusting export tariffs and a task force has been set up to work on the matter," the minister said after parliamentary hearings on the 2006 draft budget.
"Due to high world oil prices, we are seeing a growth in prices on the domestic market, but, we have managed to curb oil-product prices," Kudrin said.
