The heads of energy sectors in Russia and Pakistan discussed possible increase in hydrocarbon supplies from Russia during the Russian Energy Week.
Pakistan expects that Russia will cover 10% of the country's oil demand in the future, Pakistani Energy Minister Muhammad Ali said on Thursday.

"Going forward, we think that we can need roughly 10% of our needs from the Russian oil … and in the next few years we can take it to around 30%," Ali said at the Russian Energy Week.
