Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The Caspian Pipeline Consortium, which handles over 80% of Kazakhstan's oil exports, utilizes the port of Novorossiysk for its terminal operations. This pipeline serves as a critical supply chain link, channeling Kazakh crude oil to meet energy market demands in Europe.

A strategic partnership deepening between Kazakhstan, the Eurasian Economic Union, and Russia is currently underway, with the Eurasian Economic Union holding a council meeting in Astana on May 29, 2026.
