'Europe was hit this week by yet another abrupt interruption to its supply of natural gas from Russia — the latest incident underscoring the vulnerability of the continent’s energy supply,' writes Anna Cooban | Analysis
Even as the war has raged for more than two months, gas from Russia has continued to flow westward, much of it via pipelines in Ukraine. But late Tuesday, Ukraine's gas transmission system operator said it had suspended gas shipments through its Sokhranivka transit point, which processes as much as 32.6 million cubic meters per day. That's about a third of Russia's gas flowing through Ukraine to Europe.
But"there is enough physical capacity to fully compensate for this disruption," she told CNN Business.Ukraine's gas operator said it can ramp up gas volumes at another transit point, called Sudzha, which is located farther west in territory the Ukrainian government controls. Russian state energy giant Gazprom has refused to book additional flows along this alternate route — saying that would be"technically impossible.
