România, mai puțin dependentă de petrolul din import decât marile economii europene

In 2024, Romania's oil import dependency was 77%, which is lower than many major European economies. While Romania has a significant reliance on imports, it also has domestic production that mitigates this dependency. The EU's overall import dependency reached 96.6%, with Romania's imports primarily sourced from Kazakhstan. Recent price increases in Brent crude oil, driven by geopolitical tensions, could impact fuel prices in Romania, despite its relatively better position compared to other EU countries. The situation highlights the risks associated with reliance on specific suppliers and routes for oil imports.
