EU to cut Russian gas supplies via Ukraine by January 1, 2025

Muscat: Anna-Kaisa Ikonen, spokeswoman for the European Commission, emphasized that the anticipated disruption would have a “limited impact” on the EU’s energy supply. “Stopping supplies from January 1 is a foreseeable situation, and the European Union is ready for it,” Itkonen told Russian media.

The agreement governing the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine, signed in 2019, is set to expire on December 31, 2024. For over a year, the EU has been actively strategizing to mitigate potential energy shortages, ensuring that member states are not left vulnerable in the face of a cutoff.
Efforts to secure alternative energy supplies have accelerated amid the geopolitical tension surrounding Russia’s energy policies.
