[Ticker] Russia cuts gas supplies to Latvia

EU Reporter

Russian state-controlled Gazprom said on Saturday it suspended gas deliveries to Latvia — the last European country to suffer gas cuts amid tensions over the invasion of Ukraine. Latvian officials said the move would have little impact on the Baltic country since Riga had decided to ban Russian gas imports as of 2023, Reuters reported. EU energy ministers reached a deal to reduce gas use this winter by 15 percent.
