President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that the aggravation of the situation on the gas market in Europe is an argument in favor of abandoning Russian gas.

"It is no coincidence that exactly today there was an aggravation of the situation with gas in Europe. The price jumped again. Russia deliberately limited the supply to harm everyone, to hit Europeans," he said in a traditional video message.

"Gazprom is simply pulling the gas chain into which it has been trying to chain Europe for a very long time. This is another argument in favor of the fact that Europe should already now be moving to life without Russian gas. There should not be this dependence," he said.
