Dmitry Peskov has rejected claims that Russia is using its energy resources as a political weapon. This was reported by RIA Novosti.
Russia rejects any direct or indirect allusions to any use of its energy exports as an instrument of pressure on other countries, presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
“We completely reject any hints or direct statements that Russia is using gas or oil as a weapon of political pressure. This is not the case. Russia is consistently fulfilling all its obligations and Russia is still capable of guaranteeing Europe’s full energy security,” the spokesman said.
He stressed that Russia has every opportunity to help European countries avoid an imminent energy collapse by ridding their citizens of exorbitant bills and cold flats.
