Czech Republic's Position on Russian Oil Imports: The Czech Republic will not seek to extend an EU exemption for importing diesel and other products made from Russian oil, which expires on December 5, as part of its efforts to reduce dependence on Russian crude by 2025.
Slovakia's Stance and Potential Negotiations: Slovakia plans to continue importing Russian oil and is seeking an extension of the derogation allowing product shipments to the Czech Republic, while discussions among EU members may still occur regarding potential extensions.
