“It is clear that we will not sell gas to these countries directly.

They will buy our Russian gas, because they won’t be able to do without it, but they will buy more expensive, through intermediaries,” the deputy said.

According to the parliamentarian, now the cost of gas, on the contrary, will increase.

“The situation is repeated, as with oil.

Europe is once again tightening the noose of the economic crisis,” Ananskikh said.

The heads of the Ministries of Energy of the EU countries have agreed on a gas price limit.

The Kremlin called attempts to set a ceiling on gas prices from Russia unacceptable.
