Russia's 'only oil pipeline to EU' in flames – Germany, Austria, and Hungary face crisis
It is also a hard hit for the Russian invasion on Ukraine. These depots provided Fuel for war.
A FIRE that broke out at oil storage facilities near the Ukraine border could impact the "only pipeline sending Russian oil into Europe," an expert has warned.
One huge blaze broke out near the area of the Druzhba oil depot, located in the Russian city of Bryansk, near the Ukrainian border in the early hours of Monday morning. A second fuel tank explosion was reported by local state media in Bryansk at a "military unit". Some reports have indicated it could be a possible attack by Ukrainian forces on the Druzhba pipeline, which sends oil from Russia to Europe through Ukraine and Belarus.
The Capacity of the Depot is 10,000 tons of diesel fuel in Druzhba and about 5,000 tons at the military unit.
According to RIA Novosti with reference to emergency services, there were no casualties. There is also no threat to residential buildings.
Local residents told the publication that they did not see helicopters over the territories of the oil depots, but only heard explosions.
NATO expert Thomas C Theiner tweeted: "If this fire is at the Druzhba oil pipeline pump station... then Russia's only oil pipeline to Europe is destroyed.
"Means Germany, Austria, and Hungary get no more Russian oil.
"And this also puts Russia's main oil terminal at Ust-Luga out of action."
Russian oil also arrives in lower volumes from Artics terminals.
But the rest of the oil does arrive through the Druzhba pipeline, which in 2019 accounted for four percent to eight percent of the EU’s total crude imports.
This also comes as the EU eyes up sanctioning oil in a new package that could be announced today.
But Germany and Hungary have been leading voices within the EU opposing sanctions on Russian oil, with Austria following behind.
A group of 50 MEPs sent German Chancellor Olaf Scholz a furious letter demanding that Germany give in and allow for an immediate ban to be placed on oil imports from Russia.
