Sofia - The flow of Russian gas supply was terminated at the Ukrainian-Romanian border Tuesday morning, cutting off supply to Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey and Macedonia, the Bulgarian supplier Bulgargaz said.

Bulgaria, which covers more than 90 per cent of its needs in gas from Russia, has reserves for a few days, it said.

The Bulgarian energy authorities have already held an urgent meeting and Prime Minister Sergey Stanishev scheduled an emergency cabinet meeting to discuss the situation. (dpa)
