Ukraine's GTS operates in the absence of Russian gas transit
Ukraine has stopped the transportation of Russian natural gas through its own gas transportation system. The decision was made in the interests of national security.
This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the Ministry of Energy of Ukraine.
It is noted that the transportation was stopped on January 1, 2025 at 07:00. Ukraine has duly informed its international partners about this.
“We have stopped the transit of Russian gas, this is a historic event. Russia is losing markets and will suffer financial losses. Europe has already made a decision to refuse Russian gas. And the European initiative Repower EU envisages exactly what Ukraine has done today,” said Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko.
The Ministry of Energy noted that since January 1, Ukraine's gas transportation system (GTS) has been operating in a mode without Russian gas transit.
