Russia is not going to supply blue fuel to European countries without payment for Russian gas supplies.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said this in an interview with PBS.
"I do not know what will happen when they rule out this possibility. So once we have a final decision, we'll see what we can do. But, of course, we are not going to do charity and send gas to Western Europe for free," Peskov said.
When asked whether Russia is going to turn off gas if it is not paid for in rubles, Peskov said, "No payment, no gas".
It should be noted that the day before the G7 countries rejected Russia's demands to pay their gas bills in rubles.
Meanwhile, the EU chief diplomat believes that Putin will not stop gas supplies to Europe in response to the sanctions.
