PCK Refinery Workers Protest For End Of Oil Embargo Against Russia

SCHWEDT, GERMANY - JUNE 29: A protester, among workers from the nearby PCK oil refinery, holds a sign that reads “Stop green party energy price drivers!” as she and other protesters gather to demand an end to the current, planned German embargo against the import of Russian oil on June 29, 2022 in Schwedt, Germany. Schwedt relies heavily on the jobs at the PCK refinery, and many worry for their economic future since the refinery receives its crude oil exclusively from Russia via the "Friendship" ("Druzhba") pipeline. Germany plans to end its imports of Russian oil within the near future due to Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine and is also seeking to possibly nationalize the refinery, which is currently majority-owned by Russian energy company Rosneft.
