Russia won’t immediately resume exports of natural gas to Europe through its Nord Stream 1 pipeline, worsening a shortage that threatens to tip the continent into an energy crisis this winter. On Friday, Russian state energy giant Gazprom said it would not resume flows through the pipeline on Saturday as planned because it had detected an oil leak at its Portovaya compressor station. The pipeline has been shut since Wednesday for maintenance.
Since June, Gazprom has slashed flows through Nord Stream 1 to just 20% of its capacity, citing maintenance issues and a dispute over a missing turbine caught up in Western export sanctions. It has also cut off supplies to several “unfriendly” European countries and energy companies over their refusal to pay for gas in rubles, as the Kremlin insists, rather than the euros or dollars stated in contracts. European leaders have described the demands as blackmail.
More lies the entire world is onto Putin. If he has so many soldiers why is he forcing 1000 men from Russia to be soldiers? He does not have the man -power suggested. Killed raped and beheaded woman and children. Russians illiterate,& uninformed! You will all be punished!
Hahaha you want war with Russia, suffer the consequence! Oh Winter is just around the corner! 😊
