The Slovak Prime Minister, Robert Fico, has publicly stated that Ukraine is unwilling to restart oil supplies via the Druzhba pipeline, following a conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The Druzhba pipeline, which is a significant conduit for oil, halted its operations last month, a situation attributed by Ukraine to damage caused by Russian bombings. In contrast, Moscow has denied these claims, leading to tensions regarding the pipeline's operational status.
