Brussels (EFE). - The European Commission (EC) today confirmed the detection, in the midst of the current cold wave, new cuts in the supply of gas from Russia to the EU, particularly affecting several countries, but ruled that whether a situation of emergency, as they are provided alternatives.
"I can confirm that there have been decreases in the level of gas supply in several Member States," he said at a news conference Community Energy spokeswoman, Marlene Holzber, who said: "We're not in a state of emergency because all countries can buy (gas) in other countries. "
In particular, Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece and Italy have suffered a decline in gas supplies, which yesterday fell 30% in Austria, 24% in Italy and 8% in Poland.

Russia has unilaterally decided to reduce the volume of gas sent to the Twenty because the Siberian cold spell afflicting much of Europe and has already caused 160 deaths is also affecting their territory.The contract signed between the EU and Russia for gas supply provides some flexibility, so that Moscow can reduce gas exports to Europe in case you need it for their own consumption Holzber explained.
