(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 5. Kazakhstan
Temir Zholy (KTZ - Kazakhstan Railways) has clarified the social
media rumors about the ban of oil product supplies via rail to the
Russian port of Taman by KZT, trend reports via the press service of KTZ.
As the KTZ noted, the convention ban on the
transportation of petroleum products, which is going to take effect
on May 8, 2023, was introduced by the Council for Rail transport of
the Member States of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS)
at the request of Russian Railways JSC (RZD), not by the KTZ.
Meanwhile, according to Reuters, Russian Railways has
also restricted rail deliveries to Taman after Russian officials
said a fuel depot had caught fire near a crucial bridge linking
Russia to Crimea.
Taman port is located on the Russian side of the Kerch
Strait which connects the Black and Azov Seas.
Recently, Kazakhstan's KTZ Express JSC jointly with Russia's RZD
Logistics JSC organized the dispatch of the first refrigerated
container train in direct rail traffic on the Moscow-Xi'an (China)
route.
