Minsk not worried by Russia's decision to check Belarusian petroleum product export

MINSK. June 28 (Interfax) - The decision by the Russian government to check how Belarus complies with the conditions for petroleum products' export is a normal procedure, said Belarusian Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Rumas.

"Our export (of petroleum product-based solvents and dilutants) has grown, they (Russia) got interested in this. It is a normal practice," Rumas told reporters in Minsk on Thursday.

In theory, Belarus too may decide to check Russia's export operations, the deputy prime minister said.
