Gazprom said earlier on Tuesday that it categorically rejects Naftogaz’s claims “on initiated proceedings” in arbitration regarding the transit of Russian gas to Europe, since services not provided by the Ukrainian side should not be paid. He also stressed that he considers the position of Naftogaz unfriendly, and believes that its preservation could become the basis for sanctions of the Russian Federation against the Ukrainian company, and this would mean a ban on Gazprom from fulfilling obligations to it, including payment.

Since May 11, Ukraine has stopped receiving gas for transit through the Sokhranovka gas measuring station (GIS), citing the fact that it is under the control of Russian forces (on the territory of the LPR). As a result, only one entrance remained for gas transit to Europe – the Sudzha GIS. “Gazprom” stated that the transfer of all volumes to “Sudzha” is technologically impossible, the company fulfills all obligations to European consumers, and transit services are fully paid.
