Russia Hits Back After Ukraine Threatens to Cut Gas Ties | Business | RIA Novosti:
"Russia has hit back at Ukraine after the Ukrainian prime minister threatened to stop all natural gas imports from Russia within the next few years unless the current gas contract is reviewed.
On Thursday, Ukraine’s Prime Minister Mykola Azarov told RIA Novosti and Rossiya 24 TV channel that “Ukraine may stop buying gas altogether at that price,” warning Russia that “that is not an empty threat.”
However, later on Thursday, Natalia Timakova, spokesperson for Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, warned that Kiev’s attempts to review gas contracts would have consequences for Ukraine."
