Earlier, Russia threatened to cut off gas to Ukraine through the northern pipeline. Now it just has to do it due to the set time of the planned repairs.
The circumstances turned out such that Russia is forced to increase the amount of gas delivered through Ukraine to Europe several times.
On June 24th at 9:00 Minsk time "Nord Stream" stopped working for a few days to carry out the planned repairs and items replacement. Ukraine will compensate the lack of gas by using gas from its storages.
