Moscow to stop energy supply if prices are unfair, says Russian Ambassador to India Denis Alipov

Moscow would terminate energy supply to countries if it feels the prices offered were unfair and if they join the western campaign to stop Russian energy flow, said Russian Ambassador to India Denis Alipov.

Addressing a press conference in New Delhi on September 23, 2022, Mr. Alipov said that Russia and India have both been asking for a cessation to hostilities but Russia had to act as it would have been "irresponsible" to not respond against what he described as "totally unacceptable actions" from U.S. and the NATO.

"Russia won't trade and cooperate to her detriment. If we consider that the prices are unfair and unacceptable to us, we would simply stop supplying the the globel market and to those countries that join the U.S. initiatives on the price cap," said Mr. Alipov in his comments at the press conference.
