Authorities deny Russian fake: “Chisinau has never blocked natural gas supplies on the left bank of the Nistru”

Chisinau has never blocked natural gas supplies to the left bank of the Nistru. The authorities in Chisinau have consistently called for an end to energy blackmail in the region. This statement was made by government spokesman Daniel Voda in response to accusations from Vadim Krasnoselski, the alleged leader in Tiraspol. Krasnoselski claimed during a meeting with Russian ambassador-designate Oleg Ozerov that the Republic of Moldova would obstruct the gas supply process, thereby prolonging the energy crisis in the region.

Electricity demand on the right bank covered for January 19. Disconnections continue on the left bank of the Nistru

The electricity supply for the right bank of the Nistru has been completely secured for January 19. According to the Government Crisis Cell, there is no need to activate emergency contracts at this time. However, the left bank of the Nistru is still experiencing an electricity deficit, resulting in rotational blackouts that last five hours and occur once daily.
