Ukraine war: Russia waging gas war with Nord Stream 1 cuts - Zelensky

Apr 14,2022 11:25 am

Ukraine has accused Moscow of waging a " gas war" against Europe and cutting supplies to inflict " terror" on people.

Russian energy firm Gazprom announced it is reducing gas flows into Germany to allow Work on a turbine on the Nord Stream 1 pipeline.

But Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky said This Was simply " gas blackmail" against Europe.

It Comes as hopes remain that grain exports from Ukrainian ports could resume This Week following a deal.

Gazprom said on Monday it needed to cut gas supply to around half of current levels in order to carry out maintenance Work - But The German government said there was no technical reason for it to limit the supply.

The Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which runs under the Baltic Sea to pump gas from Russia to Germany, has already been running well below capacity for weeks, and was completely shut down for a 10-day maintenance break earlier this month.

Russia supplied the EU with 40% of its gas Last Year , and the EU has accused Russia of using energy as a weapon.

" The gas blackmail of Europe, which only Gets Worse every month, is needed by a terrorist state to make The Life of every European worse, " said Mr Zelensky in his nightly address.

He Said it was deliberately intended to make it difficult for Europe to prepare for winter, without any care for the poverty people may suffer in the colder months as a result.

The latest reduction in flows puts pressure on EU countries to reduce their dependence on Russian gas even further, and will likely make it more difficult for them to replenish their gas supplies ahead of winter.

European energy ministers are meeting on Tuesday to discuss their response to The Crisis .

Ursula von der Leyen, the European Commission President, has previously said the prospect of Russia completely cutting off gas supplies to the EU was a " likely scenario".

Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February The Price of wholesale gas has already soared, with a knock-on impact on consumer energy bills across the globe.

Meanwhile, Ukraine still hopes that a landmark deal brokered by the UN last week could mean grain exports resume from its Black Sea ports " within days. "

" If the sides guarantee security, the agreement will Work . If they do not, it will not Work , " Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov said.

In his nightly address, President Zelensky also said he was confident that grain exports from Ukraine will start again This Week .

His comments came after fears The Deal could fall apart after Russia targeted Ukraine's main port of Odesa with missiles on Saturday.

As many as 20 million tonnes of grain are trapped in Ukraine, unable to leave because the Russian Navy controls most of The Black Sea.
