Kazakhstan Can't Fill Gap Left by EU banned Russian Oil
Kazakhstan can not replace Russian oil now banned from Europe. 50 million tons of Kazakhstan was previously going to Europe via Russia. Russia is not interfering in the transfer of that Kazakhstan oil. To ramp up Kazakhstan oil deliveries to Europe would mean increaseing flow through Russia which would face Russian resistance and an alternate route around Russia is logistically difficult and more expensive.
