“Even Germany and Poland, which announced that they would give up Russian oil, have applied for pumping for 2023,” he said in an interview with TASS.
Commenting on the statements of representatives of Germany that the country plans to supply Kazakh oil through Druzhba instead of Russian oil, Novak noted that the applications did not indicate whose oil it would be.
Earlier, the head of Transneft, Nikolai Tokarev, said that the company had already received an application for pumping oil through the Druzhba pipeline from Poland and Germany for 2023, despite the statements of these countries about the refusal of supplies.
