MOSCOW, January 3 (RIA Novosti) - Ukraine will create a real threat of reduced gas supplies to European consumers, if it continues to siphon off Russian natural gas, Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov said Tuesday.
Fradkov sent a message to the European Union due to the unsettled gas issue.
"If Gazprom's natural gas continues to be siphoned off on the territory of Ukraine, this will create a real threat of reduced Russian natural gas supplies to European consumers. It is understandable that the Ukrainian side will bear full responsibility for that," the message said.
