 Vice President of the European Commission (EC) Maros Sefcovic has confirmed that gas talks on gas supply involving the EC, Russia, and Ukraine will take place in Brussels on September 19.

"Pleased to announce that I will host the next round of #TrateralGasTalks on 19 September. I am convinced that progress would send a strong positive signal to market as well as consumers ahead of the winter season," Sefcovic wrote on Twitter.
