Ukraine turns off gas to Europe

Probably not a good idea, especially when those countries being denied gas are siding with Ukraine in the war. This may cause some to rethink their allegiances.
RT - Ukraine turns off Europe-bound gas
quote:
Gas Transit Services of Ukraine (OGTSU) declared force majeure on Tuesday, saying that it was impossible to continue the transit of gas through a connection point and compressor station located in the Lugansk area. As OGTSU personnel “cannot carry out operational and technological control” over the Sokhranovka connector point and Novopskov compressor station, the company cannot continue to fulfill its contract obligations, it said.
Gas from this connection will not be accepted into the transit system of Ukraine starting at 7 am on Wednesday, OGTSU said. Sokhrankovka accounts for almost a third of the Russian gas that transits through Ukraine to Europe – up to 32.6 million cubic meters per day – according to the operators.

Forthcoming headline - “Europe cuts off pipeline of guns to Ukraine.”

Future headline; Biden, in response to Ukraine screwing Europe, cuts off American’s supply of gas, again, and again, and again; saying battery cars are the future….

You really have to stop following Russian State Media as a source. The Lugansk area is under Russian control.

They are saying they can’t operate a station in war. I don’t think that’s going to piss anyone off like you all think.
This could be an opportunistic/strategic announcement to get the Europe to commit more to Ukraine.
“Help us win so we can operate that station!”

LONDON, May 10 (Reuters) - Ukraine said on Tuesday it would suspend the flow of gas through a transit point which it said delivers almost a third of the fuel piped from Russia to Europe through Ukraine, blaming Moscow for the move and saying it would move the flows elsewhere.
GTSOU, which operates Ukraine's gas system, said it would suspend flows via the Sokhranivka route from Wednesday, declaring "force majeure", a clause invoked when a business is hit by something beyond its control.
The company said in a statement that it could not operate at the Novopskov gas compressor station due to "the interference of the occupying forces in technical processes", adding that it could temporarily shift the affected flow elsewhere, to the Sudzha physical interconnection point located in territory controlled by Ukraine.
But Gazprom, which has a monopoly on Russian gas exports by pipeline, said it was "technologically impossible" to shift all volumes to the Sudzha interconnection point, as GTSOU proposed.

Sounds like a textbook FM event.

Ukraine making a move, trying to cut off Russia’s gas revenue.
Europe talks about it, Ukraine said let me help you out.
This will be interesting.

See above...do you know how Force Majeure works and why it might be applicable a Ukrainian company operating a compressor station in Russian/Separatist controlled territory?
Hey Ukrainian field hand, we need you to go into the separatist/russian controlled territory and replace a compressor part. I quit.

I agree with you on the FM tactic. I'm merely supporting my OP with an additional link that is not RT.

Exactly. Democrats don't know how to fix the economy. If they did they would jump all over this and sell US gas to them. Difference between having a real CEO President and a dummy senator who made a living in
platitudes.
Get out there and do your job, Joe!

I wonder if this is strategic or if they actually can't control it? I'm sure it's a bit of both.
