Russia to Halt Kazakhstan Oil Exports to Germany

Russia is set to halt oil exports from Kazakhstan to Germany via the Druzhba pipeline starting May 1, according to three industry sources cited by Reuters.

The sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity, stated that a revised oil export schedule has been sent to Kazakhstan and Germany.

The disruption to Kazakhstan's flows is expected to add greater uncertainty to Germany's fuel supply, as energy shipments are already disrupted by the war in Ukraine.
