The Czech Republic has taken a significant step towards enhancing its energy security by successfully eliminating its reliance on oil deliveries from Russia. The government announced on Tuesday that the country has completed a project aimed at reducing its dependence on Russian oil.
Previously, the Czech Republic received approximately half of its oil supply, which amounted to 4 million metric tons, through the Druzhba pipeline from Russia. However, Prime Minister Petr Fiala declared that the country no longer requires Russian imports as it is now capable of sourcing all its oil needs from Western suppliers.
