Should EU countries brace for a cold winter

Should EU countries brace for a cold winter? “Nobody is going to extend the [gas transit] agreement with Russia, period,“ Zelensky said on Tuesday. “As far as the transit of gas from other companies is concerned, if some of our European colleagues remain interested in the transit, we will consider their request,“ he added. Earlier, Hungary, Slovakia, Austria and the Czech Republic voiced their concerns about the agreement between Gazprom and Ukraine’s Naftogaz for the supply of Russian gas to Europe through Ukraine expiring on December 31, 2024. In addition to that, uncertainty over the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine grew even more after Ukraine’s shelling of the town of Sudzha in Russia’s Kursk region, where the Sudzha gas metering station is located – the only operational route for the transit of Russian natural gas to Europe.
