Cum a ajuns România dependentă de petrolul din Kazahstan și nu din Rusia / Decizia strategică luată de un miliardar român
Romania's reliance on Kazakh oil has grown significantly since 2007, when Dinu Patriciu sold a majority stake in Rompetrol to KazMunaiGaz. This strategic move aimed to ensure energy independence from Russia. Currently, Kazakhstan supplies about 63% of Romania's oil imports, crucial for the Petromidia refinery. However, disruptions in supply could lead to a significant fuel shortage, with potential price increases. The interim Prime Minister has indicated that the government is monitoring the situation closely, but decisions are limited due to lack of full powers.
