RIA Novosti: Gazprom Denies Cutting Gas Supplies to Slovakia

Russia’s Gazprom has not reduced gas deliveries to Slovakia, maintaining the regular level of supply, the company’s spokesperson Sergei Kupriyanov said Thursday.

“Delivery volume of Russian gas to Slovakian SPP company in September remains at the level of 12 million cubic meters per day,” Gazprom’s representative said.

Earlier on Thursday, Slovakia's electricity and gas supplier SPP claimed it was receiving only 90 percent of Russian gas transited through the Ukrainian territory.

“SPP Company registered on Thursday, September 11, as well as on the previous day, a decline of Russian gas deliveries at a level of around 10 percent. However, this will not have any influence on the reception of gas by all Slovakian clients … since the company has sufficient reserves of fuel”, company’s spokesperson Peter Bednar told RIA Novosti Thursday.
