Hungary’s major energy company MOL could initiate legal proceedings against Janaf, the Croatian operator of the Adria pipeline, if it does not “immediately” guarantee access for unsanctioned Russian oil shipments by sea to Hungary, the company said in a press statement released on Thursday.
MOL argues that these oil shipments must be allowed because Janaf has been “long aware” that crude oil deliveries to Hungary and Slovakia via the Druzhba pipeline — the main supply route through Ukraine — have been suspended since January 27.
