Russian state-controlled energy giant Gazprom said its gas supply to Europe via Ukraine via the Sudzha entry point fell to 41.4 million cubic meters on June 18, from 41.9 the day before.

The request for gas supply through another key entry point, Sokhranovka, was rejected by Ukraine, Gazprom's spokesman Sergey Kupriyanov told reporters.

Gazprom on June 15 cut off natural gas deliveries to Germany after saying Germany's Siemens had delayed repair work on compressor units at a station on the Nord Stream 1 pipeline.

Berlin criticized the move as a "policy" and a pretext to sow uncertainty and raise prices.

German Economy Minister Robert Habeck called the move a "political decision and not a technically justifiable solution".

Italian energy giant Eni also reported problems, saying on June 16 that it would receive only 65 percent of the gas demanded by Gazprom.

The absence coincided with a visit to Ukraine by the leaders of France, Germany, Italy and Romania.

The leaders met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy in Kiev and then backed the "immediate" status of EU candidate for Ukraine.

The European Commission has recommended granting candidate status to Ukraine on June 17./ REL
