Ukraine will no longer transit Russian natural gas to the West from 2025. This was stated by the head of the Ukrainian state energy company Naftogaz, Olexiy Chernyshov, in an interview with the US foreign broadcaster Radio Liberty. He said the transit contract with Russia’s Gazprom expires at the end of 2024. Ukraine would also pull out earlier, especially since Gazprom is not paying for transit as agreed, Chernyshov said.
