Russian President Vladimir Putin indicated that Moscow would
restart the Nord Stream natural-gas pipeline to Europe on Thursday
but warned that flows could be curbed soon after if sanctions
prevent additional maintenance on its components.
Nord Stream, the main artery for Russian gas to Europe, is
currently down due to regular maintenance and European governments
are worried the Kremlin won't restore its flow when the work ends
Thursday. A prolonged outage could prompt governments to ration
energy, hurting industry and hitting already fragile economic
growth.
In late Tuesday comments during his visit to Tehran, Iran, Mr.
Putin said that "Gazprom has always fulfilled and will fulfill all
of its obligations."
But the Russian president added that unless turbines came back
soon, flows might fall next week to some 20% of capacity. Mr. Putin
said that another turbine had to go for maintenance on July 26.
