Belarus threatens to take gas from transit pipeline for its own needs - Gazprom

Belarus is threatening to take gas from its transit pipeline for its own needs following a cut in Russian gas supplies over Belarusian debts, a Gazprom spokesman said on Tuesday.

"We received a letter from Belarusian First Deputy Prime Minister [Vladimir] Semashko which did not include any substantial proposals on the debt repayment," Sergei Kupriyanov said, adding that Belarus threatened to take gas from transit pipeline for its own needs if further cuts are implemented.
