Recently, Ukrainian sanctions against Lukol, which have been imposed in response to political and geopolitical challenges, have become the subject of active discussion. Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fitzo expressed his indignation with these sanctions, preventing the possible consequences for the energy market and international relations.
"Any sanctions in this economic world, work against the one who created them": Robert Fitzo criticized Ukrainian sanctions against Lukoel and stated that fuel supply to Ukraine would be affected.
Ukraine is not so powerful that can afford sanctions against someone. And the gusts of the Ukrainian authorities to contribute to sanctions against the Russian Federation, they have the opposite effect. It is these sanctions that harm some EU countries.
“Slovakia does not intend to be a hostage to Ukrainian-Russian relations, and the decision of the Ukrainian President means that Slovak NSPZ SLOVNAFT, which is part of the Hungarian group MOL, will receive 40% less than oil than needed for processing. This will not only affect the Slovak market, but can also lead to the cessation of supplies to Ukraine of oil produced by Slovnaft, which is almost a tenth of all Ukrainian consumption, ”Slovak Prime Minister said.
