Shipments of Russian oil through Ukraine to some European countries have been interrupted due to a refusal of a bank transaction due to sanctions imposed on Russia, the company responsible for the transportation of hydrocarbons said on Tuesday.
These supplies through the Druzhba pipeline sector, which serves Hungary, in particular, “have been interrupted since August 4,” said a Transneft press release quoted by AFP.
The company explains that it was refused payment for the right of transit through Ukraine for August 22 July 28 due to the entry into force of sanctions against Moscow.
In this regard, the Ukrainian company “Ukrtransnafta” has “stopped providing oil transportation services on the territory of Ukraine” since August 4, “Transneft” reported.
We are talking about supplies through the Druzhba oil pipeline, which passes through Ukraine and serves three landlocked European countries, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
Deliveries to Poland and Germany via another section of the Druzhba, which passes through Belarus, “continue as usual”, Transneft reported.
