Ukraine pays Gazprom in full
Ukraine has fully paid its gas bill for January, Russian gas export monopoly Gazprom said today.
"(Ukrainian state energy firm) Naftogas has fully paid for supplies in January," a Gazprom official said.
Russia suspended supplies to Ukraine from 1 January due to a pricing dispute, cutting supplies to much of Europe, which gets a fifth of its gas needs from Russia via the territory of Ukraine, according to a Reuters report.
Supplies resumed 20 January after the two countries agreed on a new deal.
