Its usage and direction is considered to be of considerable Geopolitical Significance and has thus been the subject of both political disagreement and international pressure. It was originally intended to reach Gdańsk in order to transfer oil from the Caspian Sea to Poland and from there to the rest of Europe . Russia n pressure however resulted in the Kuchma government deciding on its reverse flow, and thus making it transfer Russian oil southwards to the Black Sea and from there to Mediterranean destinations. In 2005 , and after the success of Viktor Yushchenko and the former opposition, in the 2004 Ukrainian Presidential Election and the Orange Revolution , the new government has shown interest in using the pipeline in the direction originally intended, in order to transfer oil from the Caspian to Europe.
