The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan has issued a formal protest over the attack on infrastructure belonging to the international Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) in Novorossiysk waters, Orda.kz reports, citing the ministry.
The ministry emphasized that this was already the third strike on the non-military facility protected under international law.
As a responsible participant in the global energy market, Kazakhstan consistently supports the maintenance of sustainable and uninterrupted energy supplies. We emphasize that the CPC plays a significant role in maintaining the stability of the global energy system. We view this incident as damaging to bilateral relations between Kazakhstan and Ukraine, and we expect the Ukrainian side to take effective measures to prevent similar incidents in the future,
the statement reads.
Yesterday, floating drones struck CPC marine infrastructure, severely damaging the SPM/ SPU-2 single-point mooring unit, which has been fully shut down.
In response, the Ministry of Energy began an urgent rerouting of export flows across alternative corridors to avoid production disruptions.
