'France no longer receives Russian gas via pipeline'

(ANSA) - PARIS, JUN 17 - The operator of the French gas transport system GRTgaz announced on Friday that from June 15 it no longer receives Russian gas via pipeline, with "the interruption of the physical flow between France and Germany".

In recent days, the Russian giant Gazprom has significantly reduced its supplies to European countries, in particular to Germany through the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which could have caused the interruption of supplies to France.

However, the French operator has reassured that French stocks are full at 56%, compared to the usual 50% in the same period.
