Ukrainian Armed Forces Stop Russian Oil Exports to Europe!
The defense forces did the incredible. The Armed Forces of Ukraine stopped Russian oil exports to Slovakia and Hungary. Friends, here's the thing.
On the night of August 18, Ukrainian defense forces struck the Nikolskaya oil pumping station, which is 500 km from the Ukrainian border. As a result of the impact, a fire broke out and oil pumping was stopped.
Thus, Ukraine completely destroyed the Druzhba oil pipeline. Magyar reported. The friendship is over. And that's wonderful.
You ask Yanin: "Yes, but what does it give?" Friends, Hungary, Slovakia, and to a lesser extent the Czech Republic, which refused Russian oil in April 2025, depend on the supply of oil from Russia through the Druzhba oil pipeline, and most importantly, this hits the wallets of Russians. To put that into perspective, a day of downtime costs $16 million.
