Naftogaz appealed to an arbitration court, accusing Gazprom of not paying the dues (fees) for the transit of gas through Ukraine.
Gazprom says Russia can to impose sanctions against Naftogaz in the event that it fails to meet its obligations, resulting in transit fees not being paid to Ukraine.
“Gazprom categorically rejects all claims of Naftogaz Ukrainy regarding the initiated procedures related to the transit of Russian natural gas to Europe – the services not provided by the Ukrainian side should not and will not be paid,” notes the Russian giant.
Today (yesterday) Gazprom informed the Secretariat of the International Arbitration Court (IAC) of the International Chamber of Commerce and the current head of NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine.
Large fluctuations are also recorded today in the price of natural gas. From the 213 euros per megawatt hour that it was in the morning, it fell to 197 euros, to reach again a little while ago above 200 euros per megawatt hour. (203,995)
