The company said Ukraine had rejected a request to supply gas through the main Sukhranovka entry point.
Gazprom had suspended supplies to Finland, explaining that it had not received ruble payments from the Finnish public company by the expiry of a May 20 deadline.
Gazprom also imposed in April on “unfriendly countries” to pay gas export contracts in rubles instead of euros.
Ukraine remains a major transit route for Russian gas supplies to Europe, even after the Russian attack on its territory.
The complexities of energy transportation are compounding the cost of the crisis and its devastating consequences around the world, as the threatening signs of a more severe food and energy crisis are escalating, on the impact of record price hikes for energy sources such as oil and gas, and basic food commodities such as grains and cereals, especially wheat, barley and corn.
In its latest report, the World Bank expected that energy prices would rise by more than 50 percent this year, in light of the continuation of the Russian-Ukrainian crisis, which may accelerate if the European Union countries approve the ban on Russian oil imports.
