As per news report of Rt.com, Transneft announced on Monday that Ukraine had suspended crude flows to parts of central Europe because Western sanctions prevented Moscow from making payments. On Tuesday, Hungary’s biggest crude refiner, MOL, reported that Russian crude supplies via the southern branch of the pipeline had stopped, and offered to pay for transit on behalf of Moscow.
