June 19. The European Commission urged Thursday Gazprom and Naftogaz to reach a “stable and long-term” gas arrangement, the EU executive authority said in a press release published in Brussels. “The Commission urged both parties, Gazprom and Naftogaz, to reach a stable and long-term arrangement to secure transit towards the EU,” said the press release. It pointed out that “all parties should fulfill their legal and contractual obligations as far as transit to EU is concerned”. The European Commission made this statement Thursday in Brussels at a meeting of the Gas Coordination Group to assure a stronger EU coordination and to secure energy supplies to European citizens. After having listened to Gazprom and Naftogaz of Ukraine representatives on their supply and transit prospects for the next winter, the Gas Coordination Group discussed the risks and possible measures in the short and medium term to guarantee energy supplies to all European consumers.
