Russia ready to supply gas to the West – Fico

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said that Russian President Vladimir Putin has confirmed Russia’s readiness to continue supplying gas to the West.

‘Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed Russia’s readiness to supply gas further to the West and to Slovakia, which is almost impossible given the approach of the Ukrainian president after 1 January 2025,’ Robert Fico wrote on Facebook*.

The day before Fico stressed that his visit to Moscow was a reaction to Vladimir Zelensky’s refusal to transit any gas through Ukraine.

We will remind, earlier Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that Hungary received guarantees from Bulgaria on the transit of gas from Russia.
