Current High Energy Prices Are Temporary, Russia Understands This: Putin
The country is currently increasing energy supplies to its reliable partners in several regions of the world, he said.
Russia should not wait for Europe to "demonstratively slam the door" on energy supplies, but rather shift volumes to other markets, Putin noted.
Moscow is ready to work with Europeans on oil and gas supplies, but they need to give a signal, the president added.
He also stressed that Russia would continue to supply oil and gas to countries that are reliable buyers, including Slovakia and Hungary.
The president made the statements at a meeting on the situation on the global oil and gas market.
