“The specific volumes of deliveries depend on the relationship and agreements between the operators, Eni from the Italian side and Gazprom-Export from the Russian side,” RIA Novosti quotes Razov.
According to him, commercial relations have been built between the companies and there is a practice of ordering the required volumes of gas.
Earlier, the Chairman of the State Council of Italy, Franco Frattini, noted the difficulty of imposing sanctions on Moscow in the face of Europe's need for gas supplies.
Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio said that Russia is an indispensable partner in gas supplies to Europe.
