Ukraine stopped the transit of Russian oil to Eastern Europe: the reason is named

72

The operator of the system of main oil pipelines in Ukraine, JSC Ukrtransnafta, has stopped pumping Russian oil through the southern branch of the Druzhba oil pipeline system towards Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Pumping in this direction stopped on 4 August. At the same time, transit through Belarus in the direction of Poland and Germany continues.

JSC "Ukrtransnafta" stopped providing services for the transportation of oil through the territory of Ukraine from 04.08.2022 due to the lack of receipt of funds for these services

- says the official statement of the Russian trunk operator PJSC Transneft.



Oil transit through the territory of Ukraine is carried out on the terms of 100% prepayment. However, the next tranche, which the Russian company transferred to the account of Ukrtransnafta on July 22, was returned. According to Transneft, the payment was not accepted due to EU sanctions. According to the seventh anti-Russian package of restrictions adopted by the EU, European banks are no longer authorized to independently decide on the possibility of conducting a particular operation.

To confirm the fact that the operation does not fall into the number of prohibited ones, it is necessary to obtain permission from the national authorized state body. The situation is complicated by the fact that European regulators have not yet formed a unified position on the algorithm of actions for banks in various jurisdictions, and have not developed a procedure for issuing these permits

- explained the situation in PJSC Transneft.

The Russian operator informed the Ministry of Energy of Russia, JSC Ukrtransnafta and Russian shippers supplying resources in the direction of the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia about problems with oil transit. At the moment, Transneft is looking for options to resolve the issue of paying for transit with the permission of the European regulator, or in an alternative way.

The incident once again demonstrates how the rash sanctions policy of Western countries punishes not only themselves, but also Ukraine, for the sake of which everything seems to have been started. Trying with all their might to harm Russia, the EU countries are increasingly driving themselves into political and economic dead ends, from which they are then forced to get out at the cost of truly heroic efforts.

      Not certainly in that way!
      In the West, in political science, "Eastern Europe" refers precisely to the countries of the former socialist camp in Europe and the countries participating in the former Warsaw Pact - moreover, with their participation in NATO membership and without it.
      Ukraine and R.Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, R.Moldova - this is also for "Old Europe" in Western political science - the countries of "Eastern Europe".

        And supposedly, no one knew before about MN "Friendship"? So we also pump gas through their territory. Not a fact, but perhaps there are also product pipelines. But the fact is that if there was a selection from these pipelines, then the operators are definitely aware of this.

It’s like with the GTS, cut it off in October and the SVO would not be needed .. But the thirst for pennies, as always, turned into an epic obser, now money has been lost by orders of magnitude more than if they turned off the tap in the fall.

      At the moment, Transneft is looking for options to resolve the issue of paying for transit with the permission of the European regulator, or in an alternative way.
      Question - For what? Here is a blatant "force majeure", moreover, created by the hands of the Europeans themselves, and Russia has the right to close the valve altogether without fear of paying fines and penalties, because. contractual obligations cannot be fulfilled at the initiative of the EU. So no, damn it, we are "looking for opportunities" request . They go through the forest angry .

    JSC "Ukrtransnafta" has stopped pumping Russian oil through the southern branch of the Druzhba oil pipeline system towards Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
    So Europe itself how much screams about stopping the purchase of Russian oil. We will assume that Ukraine has rendered a "service" to Russia by stopping the supply of oil to unfriendly countries (the Czech Republic, Slovakia), otherwise it is "inconvenient" for various reasons to turn off the tap. The fact that they have painted themselves into a corner with their sanctions have already felt for themselves, but to surrender means to admit defeat, and this does not fit into the European "unity to resist Russia."

      Europeans and logic are generally two incompatible things ...
      I tried here for strength their minds on their news sites, where you can leave comments. 95% can be characterized by the word "ass-". No personal opinion, brainwashed, it's just washed away the hell out of it. No reasoned arguments like here, just quotes from their propaganda. For example:
      Discussed attacks on nuclear power plants.
      - Russians shoot because nuclear terrorists
      - Why would the Russians shoot at nuclear power plants on their territory? Many people will die from this, including Russians.
      - Russian maniacs and murderers, they want to kill
      - that is, the Russians do it because you decided that they are maniacs and terrorists, so if you say that maniacs and terrorists are Ukrainians, then Ukrainians shoot?
      - this is stupidity, maniacs and murderers are Russians, and Ukrainians are victims
      - well, suppose the goal of the Russians is to blow up the nuclear power plant, the missiles are ineffective, why haven't they blown up the bomb yet? Why was it necessary to seize it at all, if it would be possible to destroy it with nuclear weapons from its territory?
      - they can't think, only kill

      They discussed the attack on Yelenovka - the scenario is the same, the arguments are the same. I point out frank inconsistencies - the transition to personalities and drains.

      They say and write what they are told. Moreover, they THINK as they were told. All according to Orwell. Tomorrow they will be told to refuse gas - they will refuse. They will tell you to sit without heating and wash with cold water - they will do so. They will say that you feel bad because of the Russians - they will say and think so.
