MOSCOW (AP) — Western Europe is watching warily as Russia and Ukraine are locked in a natural gas dispute that has reduced the supply to Ukraine by at least half since the beginning of the week.
"We have little reliable information on who owes what to whom. It is thus unclear whether this is a commercial dispute or something more," said Steven Pifer, a former U.S. ambassador to Ukraine who now is an analyst at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
