Oil is moving again through the Druzhba pipeline — clearing the final hurdle to unlock the EU's €90 billion loan for Ukraine.
Shipments resumed early Thursday, with crude starting to reach Slovakia after nearly three months of disruption triggered by a Russian strike in January on the pipeline's Ukrainian section.
Slovakia's Economy Minister Denisa Saková confirmed the restart. "As of 2:00 a.m. today, the intake of oil into Slovakia via the Druzhba pipeline has resumed," she wrote on Facebook. "Oil deliveries are currently proceeding in line with the agreed plan."
