The Russian gas export monopoly Gazprom has threatened to cut off gas supplies to Ukraine, saying it must pay off debts of $2 billion by the end of the year. Ukraine's state energy company, Naftogaz, said it no longer had any arrears for imported gas and warned it would be difficult to ensure the transit of gas through its territory to Europe if Russia cuts supplies.
