The supply of these products from Turkmenistan accounted for about 74.7% of the total volume of aviation fuel purchased by Georgia for 10 months of this year. Thus, our country has become a leader among suppliers of aviation fuel to Georgia.
Azerbaijan took the second place in terms of supplies (12 thousand tons), the third – Italy (10.5 thousand tons).
It is also reported that in January-October Georgia increased the volume of purchased aviation fuel by 54.7% compared to the same period last year. A significant increase in its imports is associated with the resumption of flights. This trend is predicted to continue in the near future.
