Ukraine

Russian energy giant Gazprom has agreed to restore full gas supplies to Ukraine, ending a three-day crisis. Gazprom had cut supplies to Ukraine by half this week, in a dispute over Ukraine’s debts to Gazprom and a new contract. The dispute raised concern that gas supplies to Europe would be hit as much of its supply passes through Ukraine. But Naftogaz said that supplies to Europe had not been interrupted by its disagreement with Gazprom. (BBC)
