Russian energy giant Gazprom has halted gas supply to Latvia, citing a 'violation' of the conditions for gas withdrawal.
'Today, Gazprom stopped its gas supplies to Latvia specified in the July request due to a violation of the conditions established for gas withdrawal,' the company said in a statement on Saturday.
The company had previously stopped natural gas shipments to Poland, Bulgaria, Denmark, Finland, and the Netherlands on the grounds that they had not paid in rubles.
