Ukraine Halts Russian Gas Transit to Europe

On Wednesday, Ukraine ended the transit of Russian natural gas to Europe, ending a long-standing agreement.

President Zelensky declared that Ukraine won't let Russia profit from the ongoing war, urging the EU to adapt.

While the EU's gas imports from Russia have decreased significantly, some eastern members remain reliant.

This decision has caused tension with Slovakia, which is now the main transit point and threatened to cut electricity to Ukraine.
