Transit of Russian gas to be halted: Shmyhal names the exact time

Ukraine's position on the possibility of continuing the transit of Russian gas to Europe remains unchanged. It will be halted at 7 a.m. on January 1, 2025.

This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during his address to the Verkhovna Rada on Friday, December 20.
The head of the Ukrainian government emphasizes that Ukraine consistently defends the sanctioning of both Russian assets and resources, including gas and oil.

“We oppose any support for the aggressor through the sale of Russian gas or oil molecules,” Shmyhal said.
