Moscow [Russia], May 12 (ANI): The shipments of Russian metallurgical coal to China increased to nearly 49 per cent in April from a month earlier, Sputnik reported, citing the commodity analytics firm Kpler.
Russia has been diverting coal shipments eastward as European markets continue to close over the fighting in neighboring Ukraine.
Moreover, the cargo-tracking data shows that China imported 1.37 million tonnes of Russian coking coal last month, up from 922,000 tonnes in March and 750,000 tonnes in April last year, the Brussels-based company stated.
