Russia will stop sending gas to Poland from Wednesday, the Polish state gas company PGNiG has said.
PGNiG said Russian energy firm Gazprom had told it all gas deliveries to the country would be halted from 08:00 CET (06:00 GMT).
Gazprom has justified the suspension under new rules announced last month, which mean "unfriendly" countries must pay for gas in roubles.
PGNiG has refused to do this.
PGNiG relies on Gazprom for the majority of its gas imports and bought 53% of its imports from the Russian company in the first quarter of this year.
It described the suspension as a breach of contract, adding that the company would take steps to reinstate the flow of gas.
Who do you know that doesn't believe "Actions have consequences"? I have a bridge for sale they may be interested in.

Poland...along with the rest of Europe...were warned years ago by Trump. To Poland's credit, though, they started buying LNG from the US at the time.
This could be an opportunity for US LNG suppliers.
Putzin using oil as a weapon...big surprise.
That the oil would continue to flow and that business would carry on as usual was always a delusion.Consequences they might have thought were remote or highly unlikely.
How much for the bridge and can I pay in roubles?
Russia is using their weapons and soldiers in order to invade Ukraine.The US used Ukraine and its people as a weapon and is still doing so...........US proxy war, no big surprise.
No.Do you not think that the highlighted has been an obvious aim of this proxy war well prior to the Russian invasion, along with NATO expansion and arms sales to everyone off the back of it?
I always say follow the money and that's where you will find the real drivers of international relations

Yes, I heard a Polish government representative confirm that on the BBC World Service news last night.Other than Germany Poland has been prudent enough to effect a timely construction of an LNG terminal on its coast. A condition on which Germany will lag at least 2 years (if not longer), seeing how such a facility cannot be erected overnight.
Additionally the pipeline that is currently under construction between Poland and Norway is expected to be operational by next year.
Beyond all of which Poland's gas storage tanks are two thirds full right now.
They already have done. See post #7.Poland is in the northern hemisphere, heading into spring and summer. They can afford to do without Russian powered heat for a few months……they better stock up in the interim.

What money is gained by supporting Ukraine?
Do you really need to be told that? lol
Try the arms companies for a start and then see how the US energy sector will exploit the shift away from Russian energy supplies, having already taken Iran out. Follow that up with forcing the neutrals into joining NATO and all of the arms sales for US corporate vultures. NATO expansion east was/is, imo, at the behest of the arms lobbyists in the US and elsewhere. Western businesses will always want new markets and Ukraine, severed from Russia, opens itself up to them.
No it wasn't but it seems to be your go to tag.
No.
1. The Biden pukes don't want to make money for US fossil fuel energy producers. They want to drive those producers out of business.
2. The US hasn't been selling arms to Ukraine. We've been giving them away.
3. The threat of NATO expansion is a tactic the Biden pukes used to manipulate Putin into attacking Ukraine but the motives for doing that have nothing to do with selling anything to Europe.
Yes...follow the money. But the money we should follow is more about which politicians are being paid by multinational globalists, where all the money and arms that we are sending to Ukraine are ending up and which NGO's are getting flush with cash.
The vast majority of kit up to the present was old stock of mixed Soviet and NATO make.
As to energy the shipment of LNG is cumbersome and expensive.
And "forcing" neutral nations to join NATO?
WTF?
And NATO weaponry is a mixed bag as Germany, England, Sweden, France all have local production for tanks, aircraft, ships, etc.
