Moldova faces fuel shortages after U.S. sanctions force Lukoil to halt operations, prompting emergency measures to secure aviation fuel and alternative supplies.
Moldova is preparing for a fuel crisis as U.S. sanctions force Lukoil to halt operations by November 21, cutting off its supply of aviation fuel and closing about 110 of 570 fuel stations.
The government is moving to purchase Lukoil’s Chișinău airport fuel warehouse to ensure air travel continuity, rejecting a sale to another company over national security concerns.
Moldova is also seeking alternative supplies from Bulgaria and Romania.
Meanwhile, Lukoil’s Finnish subsidiary, Teboil, is shutting down due to sanctions blocking fuel deliveries and financial transactions, with stations running low and some already out of stock.
The U.S. blocked a $22 billion sale to Gunvor, citing Kremlin ties, prompting Gunvor’s withdrawal.
