An oil conflict between Russia's capitol, Moscow, and Belarus's capitol, Minsk, sets the Belarian regime in danger of collapse as Moscow refused to supply over 5 tons of oil without putting a duty on the sale. The Belarian president, Aliaksandr Lukashenka, made promises of a 11-13% rise in GDP which would be impossible without the Russian preferences to Belarus. This dispute was settled though as a series of compromise on both sides resulted in a fee rise of 11% to oil transfered across Belarus along with other agreements involving a higher volume of duty-free imports toward the end of the year.
