Novak: risks of gas transit to the European Union through Ukraine remain
Russia retains a concern regarding the reliability of gas transit to the EU through Ukraine: perhaps have the opportunity to be the risks due to low pressure in the Ukrainian underground gas storages (UGS), told reporters the Russian energy Minister Alexander Novak.
"we have, without doubt, anxiety. When in the cold period, for example, the Ukrainian colleagues some time ago do not provide in advance, and climate rules are that it will not miss its gas And reverse, you have the opportunity to be risks. And this situation is not excluded, because it is already very low volume of gas reserves in underground storage facilities (Ukraine - editor), respectively, very low pressure, which does not have the opportunity to be raised large amounts of gas, " said Novak.
