Poland’s PGNiG on Tuesday said Russian energy giant Gazprom would halt gas supplies along the Yamal pipeline from Wednesday morning, in a major escalation in the standoff between Moscow and Europe amid the war in Ukraine.
Gazprom has been telling its clients to pay in Ruble for doing business since March and has issued a warning on Tuesday that Poland must have to pay up in the Russian currency.
