This is not the first time that the two countries have had disagreements on oil prices, but in the past, they have always managed to reach a mutually beneficial solution.
At the same time, Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko has considered diversifying his country’s oil sources each time the two nations have had a disagreement, including by buying Saudi and American oil.
