Ukraine Asks Europe to Help Protect Gas Storage Sites From Russian Strikes

The head of Ukraine’s state energy company has appealed to the European Union to help protect gas storage sites from Russian strikes. “It is of interest of the EU to protect storage, transportation and production ”, Oleksiy Chernyshov, chief executive of Naftogaz, told the Financial Times. Europe has been storing natural gas in the Ukraine after its own capacity filled up amid depressed demand.

“Technologically, we’re all fit, and we have managed to repair the equipment and we fulfill our obligations ,” Naftogaz’ Chernyshov told the Financial Times. Apparently, this is not enough to make sure the storage sites remain functional, so Chernyshov made the case for more air defense systems.
