The head of Naftogaz, Oleksiy Chernyshov, declared that Ukraine's ban on the transit of Lukoil's oil to Hungary and Slovakia is a politically charged situation.

According to Chernyshov, Ukraine's NV media service reported that the nations received the same oil quantities in July as before the ban.

This suggests that the ban has not materially affected oil distribution to these countries.
