NATGAS
Slovakian PM Robert Fico is set to meet officials from the European Commission on Thursday to discuss gas transit according to officials.
- Slovakia would like to see Ukraine renew transit of Russian gas after the most recent contract finished at the end of 2024.
- Russian officials this week repeated their support for the flows to commence again as well but so far Ukraine has shown no interest, blaming the flows for funding the war.
- Fico has fallen out of favour with EU officials after recently meeting with Putin to discuss the energy security issues.
