Putin unleashes fury at EU: Main gas pipeline to go dry in days after crippling sanctions

“An understandable and transparent procedure of making payments should be created for (all foreign buyers), including acquiring Russian rubles on our domestic currency market.”

But with no gas booked for next month, it now appears Putin could be sticking with his original warning.

Russia has been known to cut off Europe’s gas in the past, and through the Yamal-Europe pipeline too.

For several months, gas flows through the system were in reverse, travelling to the East, which played a role in sending Europe’s gas prices soaring.

The EU is now eyeing up a gas ban, which Germany has appeared to argue against.
