Gazprom, Russia’s natural-gas exporter, resumed gas flows through Ukraine, the first step toward ending a six-day supply halt that affected at least 20 European nations.
3 million 126.000 cubic meters of fuel were pumped toward the Balkans, Turkey and Moldova.
Gazprom, provider of a quarter of Europe’s gas, suspended flows via Ukraine on Jan. 7. Russia accused Ukraine of stealing gas and closing down its pipeline system, charges Ukraine denies.
