Report: Hungary's MOL says pays for Russian oil transit via Ukraine

MOSCOW, Aug 10 (PRIME) -- Hungarian oil and gas company MOL has paid for transit of Russian oil across Ukraine via the Druzhba pipeline and expects pumping to resume in a few days, Reuters reported on Wednesday, citing the company.

Ukrainian state company Ukrtransnafta stopped Russian oil pumping through the southern line of the Druzhba pipeline to Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovakia on August 4 because of the troubles with payments after the seventh package of sanctions.
