Germany has learned that Russia plans to halt the flow of Kazakh oil through the Druzhba pipeline to a refinery in eastern Germany starting May 1, the energy ministry in Berlin told AFP on Wednesday.
The German subsidiary of Russia's state-owned oil company Rosneft told German regulators that the Russian energy ministry had ordered the halt, the ministry said, adding that Moscow had not confirmed the decision directly to the German government.
