Russia accuses Ukraine of seeking to disrupt ties
Published: 10 Aug 2009 20:46:16 PSTMOSCOW, Aug 11 - Russian President Dmitry Medvedev accused Ukraine on Tuesday of seeking to disrupt economic ties with Russia and putting at risk the safety of gas supplies to Europe.
"We have an impression that Kiev consistently seeks to break traditional economic ties with Russia, firstly in the energy sector," Medvedev said in an open letter to Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko.
"As a result, the stable use by our countries of a factually united gas pipeline network serving the energy security of Russia, Ukraine and many European states has been put at risk," said Medvedev.
He said he had decided to postpone sending a new ambassador to Kiev.
