Romania’s interim Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan held a telephone conversation on Wednesday with Kazakh Prime Minister Olzhas Bekteev to discuss the supply of crude oil to Romania.
The two leaders reaffirmed Kazakhstan’s status as a strategic partner for Bucharest, focusing on securing stable energy flows amid ongoing global supply chain adjustments.
The discussion underscores Romania’s continued effort to diversify its energy import sources.
By strengthening ties with Central Asian producers, Bucharest aims to reduce reliance on traditional suppliers and enhance the resilience of its domestic energy infrastructure.
This diplomatic engagement aligns with broader European strategies to secure alternative energy routes.
This development follows recent moves by Kazakhstan to expand its export capabilities.
