There is no further risk of disruption to Russian oil supplies to Europe after a row between Russia and Ukraine was resolved, the European Union said Tuesday.

"Today, the Russian government has informed the Commission that an agreement with
Ukraine on the transit conditions has been found and that no interruption of supplies was foreseen," the commission said in a statement.
