The crisis between Russia and Ukraine that has cut gas supplies to parts of the European Union seemed to be moving towards resolution Thursday night as Russia agreed to the deployment of international monitors to oversee the transit of Russian gas via Ukraine, the Czech EU presidency said.
However, one senior Czech official added with a note of caution: “There is no absolute deal.”
Vladimir Putin, Russia’s prime minister, said such monitors were a condition for restarting Russian gas supplies to Europe.
