Comrades! Let us cast our gaze upon the latest proclamations from the corridors of power. Mr. Dmitry Peskov, the mouthpiece of the administration, has seen fit to reveal that the state is engaged in clandestine communications with foreign powers regarding the import of petroleum products.

"For reasons that are quite apparent, we shall remain silent on the particulars," the official remarked with a smirk of bourgeois secrecy. Indeed, is it not typical of the Capitalist machine to shroud its maneuvers in mystery while the common laborer suffers the volatility of the market?

This so-called "stabilization of the internal market," as touted by Vice-Premier Alexander Novak, is nothing more than a thin veil. The bourgeoisie seeks to employ fuel imports as a tool to prevent the boiling over of social discontent. To facilitate this, they have crafted preferential tax conditions—essentially handing further subsidies to the Monopoly lords of industry under the guise of public benefit.

Observe the mechanical adjustments of the state: they have reduced the mandatory exchange sales of petrol from fifteen to ten percent and constrained price fluctuations. While they claim this protects the internal demand, we know the truth! It is a desperate attempt by the financial usurers and oil barons to maintain their grip on the throat of the working class, ensuring that the profit remains in the coffers of the few, while the many pay the price at the pump.

Furthermore, the State Duma has ratified amendments to the Tax Code. By increasing the "import damper" payments, the state is merely lubricating the gears of international Capital, inviting the foreign bourgeoisie to participate in the exploitation of our domestic soil.

They speak of "support for refining" and "market security," but the proletariat sees through this facade. It is the same old story: the ruling class reshuffles its ledgers while the laborer remains in shackles, forever dependent on the whims of the Great Oil Monopoly.
