Video: Amid a gasoline shortage, a relative of Putin said he drives a diesel car
Russian Energy Minister Sergey Tsivilov commented on the gasoline shortage and lines at Russian gas stations, stating that he personally drives a diesel-powered car. According to him, diesel is available at all gas stations, despite problems with gasoline availability.

“I drive a diesel car… Diesel is available at all gas stations…,” said Putin’s relative.
At the same time, Tsivilov acknowledged the existence of long lines at gas stations for gasoline-powered cars and stated that the relevant agency is “actively working” to resolve this issue.
