MOSCOW, Jan 19 (PRIME) -- The confirmed amount of Russian gas shipments to Europe across Ukraine decreased by 23% to 25.1 million cubic meters on Thursday, Gazprom said in a statement.
"Gazprom transits Russian gas across the territory of Ukraine at the amount confirmed by the Ukrainian side at the Sudzha metering station at 25.1 million cubic meters as of January 19. The application for the Sokhranovka metering station was declined," spokesman Sergei Kupriyanov said as cited by the company.
In May, Ukraine stopped transit of Russian gas via the Sokhranovka station saying it is located on the territory controlled by Russians leaving the Sudzha station the only entry point. Gazprom said then that the entire flow cannot technically be shifted to Sudzha.
