At the same time, he noted that Gazprom uses less contracted volumes against the backdrop of the gas crisis in the EU.

“Billions of euros went to the bottom of the Baltic Sea in the form of the Nord Stream project, while the routes through Ukraine and Poland are half-empty ... Ukraine offers an additional 80 million cubic meters of capacity for gas transit to Europe per day, but Gazprom even uses less contracted capacity (less than 109 million cubic meters per day), ”the head of the Ukrainian company wrote on his Facebook page.

According to Makogon, Ukraine supports the EU's proposal to investigate the record jump in gas prices and advocates "transparent tariff setting."

The press service of the GTS Operator of Ukraine previously stated that from October 1, Gazprom stopped the transit of natural gas through Ukraine in the direction of Hungary.

Russian President Vladimir Putin commented on speculation about gas transit through Ukraine's gas transportation system.
