Russia suspends gas supplies to Czechia and Slovakia

Czechia and Slovakia have stopped receiving Russian gas transported to Europe viaUkraine this Wednesday. A representative of a Czech company RWE Transgas has claimed it.
According to him, the main eastern pipeline was blocked last night. Now Czechia will have to increase supplies from Norway to satisfy local needs.

Meanwhile, the head of “Gazprom” company Alexander Medvedev has informed that Ukraine has blocked the last (fourth) pipeline supplying gas to Europe.

Russia has reduced gas transit by 21 million cubic metres recently. By “Gazprom”’s estimation, Ukraine misappropriated this amount yesterday.
