Russian supply of natural gas to Finland will be cut tomorrow morning, Finnish and Russian energy companies have said.

"It is highly regrettable that natural gas supplies under our supply contract will now be halted," Gasum CEO Mika Wiljanen said in a statement.

In April, Gazprom Export demanded that future payments in the supply contract be made in rubles instead of euros, but Gasum rejected the demand and announced on Tuesday it was taking the issue to arbitration.Queried about the matter, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov today referred reporters to Gazprom for"details" but said that"it is obvious that nobody is going to deliver anything for free".

On Sunday, Russia suspended electricity supplies to Finland overnight after its energy firm RAO Nordic claimed payment arrears, although the shortfall was quickly replaced.
