Slovenian natural gas supplier Geoplin said it had registered a 90% drop in
supplies from Russia earlier Tuesday and was having to use its reserves to meet
domestic demand.
At 4:00 am (0300 GMT), Russian gas
giant "Gazprom announced an interruption of natural gas supplies,"
Geoplin said in a statement.
"Supplies were, in fact, reduced by 90%. The situation has improved partially
after 10:00 am," the statement
said.
