“Whoever sets the price ceiling is left out”. The countdown has begun for the supply of gas to Europe in the winter months. At the Russian Energy Week forum, President Putin threatens that Russia “will not provide energy resources to countries that limit oil prices”. “Eurozone countries only worsen the situation with the decision to limit the price of oil and petroleum products in our country – underlines the tsar – but it is not just European countries, they are doing it together with North America. “.
On the same day, Gazprom, a Russian multinational controlled by the Federation Government, alerted the European Union and gave the cold alarm to EU cities. “Whole European cities can freeze during the peak of winter cold,” said Russian energy giant Aleksey Miller. “No one can guarantee that Europe will be able to survive the winter with the current volume of gas reserves”, added Miller, according to whom “about 800 million cubic meters of gas a day may not be enough for the EU in case of abnormal cold. “. Alexander Dyukov, chairman of the board of directors of Gazprom Neft, added, as Tass reports: “Gazprom Neft will not supply oil to countries that introduce price caps.”
