 Russia cuts off Denmark's gas – the 5th European country Moscow has refused to supply- amid fears heating prices will soar even FURTHER

Danish firm Orsted said Gazprom would cut supplies to Denmark on June 1

• Poland, Bulgaria, Finland and The Netherlands have also seen supplies cut
• Russia is turning off the taps in response to Western sanctions over Ukraine war
• Orsted had anticipated Moscow's move by filling up its storage facilities
• The announcements follow Monday's agreement by European Union leaders to cut the European Union's imports of Russian oil by 90 percent by year-end 

• Danish energy company Orsted said Tuesday that Russian gas company Gazprom Export would cut gas supplies to Denmark on June 1 after the Danish company refused to pay in rubles.

  Orsted, formerly DONG Energy, said Gazprom Export had informed it that its gas supply would be halted at 6:00 am (0400 GMT).

  Russia has said it will only accept payment for natural gas deliveries in its national currency, with buyers required to set up ruble accounts or have their taps turned off.
