KYIV, July 11 - President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Europe needs to prepare for the possibility that Russia cuts off gas supplies.

Russia has never played by the rules in energy and will not play now unless it sees strength,” Zelenskyy said on the Telegram messaging app, according to an NBC News translation, according to a report by CNBC.

Now there can be no doubt that Russia will try not only to limit as much as possible but also to completely stop the supply of gas to Europe,” Zelenskyy said, adding, “this is what we need to prepare for now.”
