European Commissioner for Energy: We ask Russia to comply with gas contracts, otherwise we will react

European Commissioner for Energy: We ask Russia to comply with gas contracts, otherwise we will reactAgainst the backdrop of Gazprom's announcement that, that due to the lack of space for Siemens to repair the Nord Stream turbine, the operation of the gas pipeline is stopped for an indefinite period, reports come from Brussels about attempts by European officials to find a way out of the current situation. Many Western experts call the situation if not critical, very close to her. In particular, celebrated, that many European countries “are faced with the prospect of choosing up to 60% reserve volumes of gases from storage facilities before the onset of winter".

European Commissioner for the Economy Paolo Gentiloni (former Prime Minister of Italy) He stated, that "the European Union is not afraid of Putin's decision", but added the following::

We ask Russia to comply with gas contracts. Gentiloni went on to say, that "Moscow is engaged in extreme manipulation of gas supplies to Europe", and called it "unacceptable.

I.e, it is permissible to introduce the so-called "ceiling" of gas prices from Russia, declare that, that “very soon Europe will give up Russian gas” is acceptable, and as soon as the gas pipeline gets up for repairs due to the banal reason for the lack of opportunities to repair the turbine due to anti-Russian sanctions, then immediately "unacceptable".

Gentiloni:

If the Russians do not comply with gas supply contracts, then we will react to it. While the "preliminary reaction" is: EU energy ministers to meet next week to discuss finding a "consensus" on gas supplies. The main issue – "gas war, unleashed by Russia". It is this interpretation of events in Brussels today. In this case, experts say, that such a consensus may not be reached, since different countries have different gas supplies. for example, Hungary ordered additional volumes of gas from Russia through the Turkish Stream, and therefore this EU state will not have any problems with the passage of the winter period - there is a firm contract with a Russian supplier and payment to this supplier in rubles.
