Belarus seeks oil from Ukraine, Poland, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan amid row with Russia

Belarus, having failed to agree terms with Russia for oil supply this year, has sent proposals to Ukraine, Poland, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and the Baltic states to buy oil from them, news agency Interfax reported on Tuesday citing Belarus’s first deputy prime minister.

Reuters reminded that Russian oil companies including Rosneft Gazprom Neft, Lukoil and Surgutneftegaz have suspended deliveries to Belarus since Jan. 1 as Moscow and Minsk argue over contract terms.
