Zakharova said that "the United States, the EU, and Ukraine itself are responsible for the termination of Russian gas supplies through Ukraine".
This decision outraged the aggressor country, and a spokeswoman for the hostile foreign ministry said that such actions would "weaken Europe's economic potential" and "negatively affect the living standards of Europeans".
At the same time, Zakharova did not say a word about the consequences of stopping gas transit for Russia.
