   nord-stream-gas-flow-until-sanctions-lifted-2022-9   
      
   The Kremlin has issued its sharpest comments about cutting off Russia's   
   natural-gas flow to Europe via the key Nord Stream 1 pipeline on Monday,   
   saying supplies would not resume until the "collective West" lifts   
   sanctions against Moscow.   
      
   "Problems with gas supply arose because of the sanctions imposed on our   
   country by Western states, including Germany and Britain," said Kremlin   
   spokesman Dmitry Peskov during a conference call, Reuters reported on   
   Monday.   
      
   "We see incessant attempts to shift responsibility and blame onto us. We   
   categorically reject this and insist that the collective West – in this   
   case, the EU, Canada, the UK — is to blame for the fact that the situation   
   has reached the point where it is now," Peskov added, per Reuters.   
      
   Peskov added that Nord Stream 1 would "definitely" resume its supply to   
   Europe if sanctions are eased, according to the outlet.   
      
   Before turning off its supply completely last Friday, Russian state gas   
   giant Gazprom had already been slowing natural-gas flows via the Nord   
   Stream 1 for a few months. The company and the Kremlin have consistently   
   insisted that the slowing of gas flows was due to technical reasons.   
      
   The complete halt at Nord Stream 1 sent the benchmark Dutch natural-gas   
   futures surging by as much as 36% in just one day on Monday.   
      
   Russia supplies about 40% of Europe's natural gas, most of which is   
   transported via pipelines. In 2021, Russia exported about 155 billion   
   cubic meters of the fuel to Europe — more than one-third of which came   
   from the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, according to Reuters.   
      
   After the Nord Stream 1's shutdown, just two networks carrying natural gas   
   to Europe remain: one flows through Ukraine — although supply has been   
   slowed due to the war there — and the TurkStream pipeline that runs from   
   Russia to Turkey, which is operating normally.   
      
   "The market will now likely become increasingly nervous about flows via   
   Ukraine as well as TurkStream," wrote Warren Patterson, the commodities   
   strategy head at ING Bank on Monday.
