    • Russia stopped delivering gas to 5 european countries in May 2022 because those countries refused to pay in rubels.

    • Then they announced in June 2022 that they would only deliver half of the agreed-upon volumes to Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Czechia and Italy.

    • In September 2022 Russia stopped gas transfers via Nord Stream 1 completely, “because of technical difficulties”.

    Those are facts. Russia stopped these gas transfers. No one else.

      Russia stopped transfers because Europe refused to pay in a currency Russia could use. Funny how you forgot to mention that the west froze Russian foreign assets there.

      Now, Europe is still buying Russian gas, but via resellers while lying to the public.

      Those are the actual facts.
