Speaking to the main shareholders and managers of Russian oil companies, the prime minister said, “You work in the Russian Federation. You obtain licenses to use the mineral resources, but these resources are owned by the Russian people,” adding that “the state will exercise its right to regulate these activities, and the companies should be responsible for making high-quality petroleum products available on the domestic market.”
