Russian gas import by EU countries down 48%

Russian gas import by EU member-states declined by 48% from 2022 year start, Gazprom said on Wednesday.

"From the year start, countries of the European Union reduced Russian gas supplies to their market by 48%, and taking into account the United Kingdom - by 49%," Gazprom said.

Gazprom earlier completely halted gas supplies over the Nord Stream pipeline due to detected fuel leaks in the course of plant maintenance.
