The Latvian parliament, Saeima, on Thursday adopted in the final reading amendments to the energy law stipulating a ban on natural gas supplies from Russia beginning on January 1, 2023.
The Saeima has adopted rules for specific cases when negotiating with the regulatory authorities of other European Union countries on ways to ensure the ban on natural gas supplies from Russia.
The rules will apply to cases when Conexus Baltic Grid, the Latvian operator of the natural gas transmission and storage system, is negotiating with the operator of another EU country on creating a unified natural gas transmission system.
