Gazprom, Ukraine Lock Horns Over Gas
From UPI
Uninterrupted natural gas deliveries to Europe through the Ukrainian transit system loomed large in discussions with a representative from Kiev, Gazprom said.
A report this week from The Moscow Times states Gazprom may sue its Ukrainian counterpart Naftogaz and issue penalties should the Ukrainian side take on less gas than what’s outlined in their contract.
European consumers get about 20 percent of their natural gas from Russia and the bulk of that runs though the Soviet-era transit system in Ukraine.
