Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tonight accused Moscow of using gas cuts to spread terror in Europe and urged the EU to impose new sanctions on Russia.
“All this is being done deliberately by Russia, to make it as difficult as possible for the Europeans to prepare for the winter. And this is an open gas war that Russia is waging against a united Europe,” he said.
“They don’t care what will happen to the people, how much they will suffer from hunger due to the blockade of the ports or from the winter cold and poverty. Or from the occupation. These are just different forms of terrorism,” added the Ukrainian president.
The new reduction in the flow of natural gas through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline is seen as Moscow’s retaliation to European countries for their support for Kyiv.
Ukraine’s president argued that blackmailing Moscow with natural gas is an “incentive to make the EU’s eighth package of sanctions much stronger” against Russia.
