Moscow has no intention of engaging in charity and providing gas to Europe for free if the European Union countries refuse to pay for gas in rubles, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told PBS.
When asked whether Russia would cut off its gas exports to Europe if EU countries refused to pay in rubles, Peskov said: “I don’t know what is going to happen when they reject this possibility. As soon as we have a final decision, we’ll see what can be done. Definitely, we’re not going to make charity out of that and send gas free of charge to Western Europe.”
“No payment, no gas,” the Kremlin spokesman emphasized.
