Journalists from several German news outlets have determined that the oil imported from Kazakhstan, which may in fact come from Russia, received preferential treatment at the German border. Apparently it is not being tested, which speeds up the customs control. Meanwhile, the Customs Service admits that such a procedure may be used to circumvent sanctions.

The oil supplies to Germany from Kazakhstan may replace the imports via the Naftoport in Gdańsk. This may indicate that Germany will yet again become dependant on the East, which, due to pipeline infrastructure, is influenced by Moscow. These deliveries are mainly important for the German refinery Schwedt, to which oil is also supplied by […]

Germany has shut down its nuclear power plants and is in the worst energy crisis in decades. Now they want to drag the whole European Union to the bottom. The ENVI Commission, the largest in the European Parliament and clearly influenced by German mentors, has adopted an opinion eliminating nuclear power from the list of […]

Germany’s Ministry of Economy and Climate told a regional newspaper that the oil imported from Kazakhstan mixes with Russian oil, and that it was inevitable. Poland was concerned this scenario was the case. The sanctions have not been violated, but the oil from Russia continues to flow through Polish territory to our neighbor. This confirms […]

The German government has decided to extend the board of trustees over Rosneft’s shares in the Schwedt refinery. It also rejects the possibility of examining the origin of oil sold through the territory of Russia postulated by Poland. Poland maintains that it has requested that the provisions of the sanctions regulation be supplemented with specific […]

The Center for Democracy Studies at the liberal FPD party, which is a member of the coalition government, has written a report on Russian influence in the German energy sector.
