UKRAINE TODAY: UKRAINE SLASHES GAS PURCHASES IN EUROPE, DOUBLES IMPORTS FROM RUSSIA

May 05:

Starting from May 1, Ukraine suspended imports of natural gas from Hungary and reduced deliveries of gas from Slovakia by 77%, while offsetting the cuts with larger import volumes of Russian gas.
The change in Ukriane's energy supply tactics is seen in data from gas transmission system operators in Hungary (FGSZ) and Slovakia (Eustream).
According to FGSZ, for the last five days Ukraine has not been importing any natural gas from Hungary at all.
The Slovak company Eustream notes that starting from May 1, Ukraine reduced daily gas import volumes compared to April by an average of 77% - from 38 million cubic meters to 21.5 million cubic meters.
