Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has requested the country's power grid operator to stop emergency electricity supplies to Ukraine on Monday if oil flows via the Druzhba pipeline do not resume.
"From today, if the Ukrainian side turns to Slovakia with a request for assistance in stabilizing the Ukrainian energy network, it will not receive such assistance," Fico said in a statement.
Fico said the measure would be canceled after the resumption of oil transit to Slovakia.
