War Balance
Mauritius' support for Ukraine since 2022: <€1m (<0.01% of one year's GDP: its aid, refugee hosting, private donations and its other parts of support, net of money flowing back). Russia kept €112m (0.86% of GDP) more than without the war, mostly Russian crude in fuel bought from refiners elsewhere (€115m; the other parts take €3m off it). The net is 0.86% of a year's GDP toward Russia (likely 0.48% to 1.3% toward Russia; very likely · >99%).

Supported Ukraine + raised Russia's earnings from trade = 0.86% of GDP toward Russia. Mostly toward Russia (mostly Russian crude in fuel bought from refiners elsewhere).
Chance toward Russia: >99%; 100% of the other method choices agree.

It bought €2m from Russia in 2021 and €1m in 2025. It sold €2m to Russia in 2021 and €1m in 2025. For Mauritius: <€1m paid above no-war prices, most of it in 2022, 71% of it on gas contracts. These are sales values at each year's prices; the totals count what the seller kept on them.
We found no sanctions of Mauritius' own against Russia (checked 27 October 2026). This says nothing about whether firms there follow other countries' sanctions. Russia's list of “unfriendly” states does not name Mauritius. Checked 27 October 2026.
Russia kept more from its oil bought via other countries: €0.11bn (0.88% of one year's GDP).
In the map's ranking: number 16 of 32 economies toward Russia, as a share of GDP.

10 sources back its parts: 3 official statistics, 0 research reports, 0 press reports and 1 of this project's own estimates, plus 6 method inputs. By size, 0% of its parts are reported or measured (A–B), 100% modelled (C) and 0% rough indications (D).
In money terms the net is −0.86% of one year's GDP (likely 0.48% to 1.3% toward Russia; very likely · >99%). Chance toward Russia: >99%; 100% of the other method choices agree. Russia kept €112m (0.86% of GDP) more than without the war, mostly Russian crude in fuel bought from refiners elsewhere (€115m; the other parts take €3m off it). Most of this is fuel and food bought from Russia. Fuel is fungible and sold through many traders: the figure reflects what this economy bought, not a policy toward Russia or Ukraine. The number counts money: weapons at their money value; votes, diplomacy and intent are not in it.
10 sources back its parts, 3 of them official statistics. By part: Russia kept more from its oil bought via other countries: Fuel made from Russian crude, measured from the buyers' own records: India's and the buyers' monthly customs (UN Comtrade), Türkiye's crude by origin (EPDK), EU refiners' Russian crude (Eurostat), US imports (EIA), Cyprus's and Malta's energy imports by consigning country (Eurostat), Australian Petroleum Statistics; Russia kept less from fuel and goods sold here: UN Comtrade, IMF trade statistics and Eurostat: goods trade with Russia and Ukraine. The map's panel lists every one, with its documents.
