Ukraine has halted Russian gas supplies to European customers that pass through the country, almost three years into Moscow’s all-out invasion.
At a summit in Brussels last month, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy vowed that Kyiv would not allow Russia to use the transits to earn “additional billions ... on our blood, on the lives of our citizens.” But he briefly held open the possibility of the gas flows continuing if payments to Russia were withheld until the war ends.
