Slovakia and Hungary have turned to Croatia with a request to enable the transport of Russian oil via the Adriatic Adria pipeline. The reason for this step is the ongoing problem with the Druzhba pipeline, which Ukraine still has not restored. Ukraine justifies the halt in deliveries by citing the Russian attack on the pipeline's infrastructure on January 27.
Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs Peter Szijjártó stated that Ukraine still has not restored the oil transport and deliveries remain interrupted. According to Szijjártó, the flow of oil stopped for political reasons. In an effort to address the energy security of both countries, Slovakia and Hungary have decided to look for alternative ways of transporting fossil fuels.
The Adriatic Adria pipeline represents a potential alternative for both countries, which are dependent on Russian energy supplies. The request to Croatia means seeking a new routing solution at a time when Ukraine, including its Druzhba pipeline, remains out of operation. The situation arose as a consequence of the ongoing conflict and its effects on the region's energy infrastructure.
