Russia’s reduced its flows of gas across Ukraine by 7% during the first half of this year, compared to the same period last year. Ukraine’s massive gas pipeline system handled 42.5 billion cubic meters of gas during the first six months of this year, Ukrtransgaz reports. By contrast, Russia increased its gas flows through by 13.7% last year, over 2016, partly due to the temporary closing of Nord Stream for repairs on the line, which was commission in Nov. 2011.
