The Mol company will ensure the supply of crude oil on the border of Belarus and Ukraine.
Hungarian company Mol Nyrt. signed an agreement to continue deliveries of Russian oil via Ukraine.
Bloomberg reports this.
According to the agreement, oil deliveries are to begin at the Belarusian-Ukrainian border on September 9.
Mol Vice President for Downstream Gabriel Szabo said that “the new agreement provides a permanent solution for transporting oil via the Druzhba pipeline,” which connects Russia and Hungary via Ukraine. He did not specify the details of the supply.

Recall that in mid-July, Slovakia and Hungary announced the suspension of LUKoil oil transit through Ukraine due to Kiev's sanctions. Although Budapest considered this a violation of the Association Agreement, the EU did not agree with this. After the transit was stopped, Hungary was offered to receive oil through Croatia, but the Hungarian Foreign Minister called Croatia “unreliable”, which caused indignation in Zagreb, which considered such a statement a political insult.
