London-Sana
The British energy regulator Ofgame has warned that the country faces a "significant risk" of gas shortages this winter, and the possibility of entering a state of emergency in light of the aggravation of the energy crisis that hits Europe as a result of the repercussions of the Ukrainian crisis.
The British newspaper, “The Times”, quoted “Ofgame” as saying: “Britain is at high risk of gas shortages this winter, and it is possible that it will enter an emergency with gas supplies, which may be cut off from some gas-powered power plants, which leads to them stopping generating electricity.” “.
The newspaper pointed out that this statement is likely to increase the fear of planned power outages, as Britain depends on gas-fired electric power plants to receive the largest share of its electricity supply and therefore next winter will be more difficult than the previous one.
And the British Daily Telegraph newspaper revealed last August that London is trying to persuade European countries not to give up subsidizing and pumping weapons to the Kyiv regime, amid growing concern in Europe about the repercussions of the Ukrainian crisis and the resulting rise in energy and food prices.
After Russia launched a special operation to protect Donbass, Western countries imposed wide-ranging sanctions against Moscow, which reflected economic problems for the United States, Britain and the European Union, including a sharp rise in fuel and food prices.
