Bucharest to assess planned sale of Lukoil's Romanian assets, energy ministry says
- Country:
- Romania
Romania will assess the planned sale of the assets held by Russia's Lukoil in the country, including roughly 320 petrol stations and a refinery, to ensure it complies with European Union sanctions and the country's own energy security norms, the energy ministry said on Thursday.
Romania, which can block energy sales if it deems them a national security and supply risk, will issue a position only after the shareholder structure and source of capital of any potential investor is fully clarified, the ministry added.
