With the future of Russian gas flows across Ukraine in doubt
Friday, June 29, 2018


With the future of Russian gas flows across Ukraine in doubt, Rada Speaker Andriy Parubiy met with US officials in Washington Wednesday and argued for “powerful American energy companies” to invest in modernizing and running the Soviet-built pipeline system, Ukrinform reports. With Russia investing billions of dollars to build bypass pipeline around Ukraine, it is unclear if US energy companies would be able to persuade Gazprom to send gas across Ukraine. Washington’s policy is to support diversity of gas and of gas routes to the EU.
