MOSCOW, March 25. /TASS/. Kiev launched an attack on a gas metering station in Sudzha and blamed it on Russia even as several European economies rely on that for energy supplies, Russia’s top diplomat, Sergey Lavrov, said in an interview with Channel One.
"They [the Kiev regime] recently attacked Sudzha, a gas metering station there, and claimed that Russia itself had delivered that attack, even as that Sudzha [facility] is our asset on which quite a number of European countries rely for continued energy supplies," he lamented.
Lavrov warned that oil volumes to European consumers, too, will fall sharply following another recent attack in which Ukraine targeted the Kropotkinskaya oil pumping station in southern Russia’s Krasnodar Region.
"We also favor looking at ways of preventing any damage to energy infrastructure," the Russian foreign minister concluded.
