The gas dispute between the two and its impact on several EU countries as naturally led to daily coverage of it. Times of London, Telegraph and WSJ are reporting that the dispute is escalating amid accusations by Russia that Ukraine is stealing gas. WSJ also reporting on the legal front being opened by Gazprom against Naftohaz. While NY Times reports that Gazprom is asking for $450 per 1000 cubic meters of gas, up from $418. Telegraph has a piece on the impact that the dispute will have on EU members as Putin orders gas cuts to Ukraine. Gazprom warns that the stolen gas will mean that Ukraine's debt will increase. The EU is sending a fact-finding mission to Moscow, who will aid in resolving the crisis. However, with a new Middle east crisis also a focus of the EU's attention, its unclear how much help it can be in resolving this conflict.
