You're reading: Kobolev says halt of Russian gas supply to Ukraine won’t threaten transit to Europe

Russia suspending gas supplies to Ukraine won't threaten gas transit to Europe, Naftogaz Ukrainy CEO Andriy Kobolev told journalists in Kyiv on Feb. 27.

He said that Ukraine had demonstrated its reliability as a transit partner several times.

Kobolev also said that it had particularly demonstrated its reliability in summer-spring 2014, when Ukraine didn’t purchase Russian gas but had shipped gas to Europe in full volume.
