Restrictions on the price of Russian gas will not be introduced.

The observer confirmed that Europe is experiencing an acute crisis due to a sharp rise in energy prices and their shortage.
“Ministers in Brussels are urgently trying to prepare for a harsh winter,” the article says.
The meeting of EU ministers was held on Friday, September 9. The heads of ministries discussed additional measures to reduce tensions in the world.
Among them, an option was discussed with the obligation of consumers to reduce electricity consumption during peak hours, to introduce limits on the income of companies that produce electricity at low costs and receive windfalls due to high prices.
Earlier, Vladimir Putin recalled that the West is not in a position to dictate its terms to Moscow and impose price restrictions on Russian energy resources.
“Freeze, freeze, wolf’s tail. The West is not in a position to dictate its terms to Russia, let them come to their senses,” Vladimir Putin advised.
