Putin: Russia will reduce Europe's gas supplies if Ukraine takes gas.(CNBC).
Russia's President Vladimir Putin said Russia will have to reduce gas supplies to Europe if Ukraine steals gas.
Pipelines that supply Europe crosses Ukraine en route.
In June, Moscow halted gas supplies to Ukraine due to mounting debts and pricing disagreements.
Disturbance of Russian gas supplies to Europe has happened two times in the past ten years, in 2006 and 2009. A third of Europe's gas comes from Russia.
If no agreement is reached between Ukraine and Russia, Ukraine may face energy shortages this winter—further increasing risks to Europe's gas supply.
Hmmm...C'mon lets get serious this 'Ukrainian gas mob' has outstanding debts of $ 4 Billion plus and now they contemplate to 'steal' gas designated for Europe? If i were Putin i would shut it off completely....Biden junior on the board of directors or not. If you don't pay your hydro or gas bill you get cut off as well, who does Ukraine think they are? God's gift to humanity?
