Starting April this year, Ukraine might reduce gas transit deliveries to Poland, Polish daily Gazeta Wyborcza warns, quoted by RBK Daily. According to report, the Kiev government placed an interdiction on the RosUkrEnergo company to provide gas for exports. Polish experts estimate a reduction of gas suppliers both for Poland but also for Romania, Hungary and Slovakia.
