These disputes have grown beyond simple business disputes into transnational political issues—involving political leaders from several countries—that threaten natural gas supplies in numerous European countries dependent on natural gas imports from Russian suppliers, which are transported through <a href="/wiki/Ukraine" title="Ukraine">Ukraine</a>. Russia provides approximately a quarter of the natural gas consumed in the European Union; approximately 80% of those exports travel through pipelines across Ukrainian soil prior to arriving in the EU.<sup id="cite_ref-BBC182009_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BBC182009-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>A serious dispute began in March 2005 over the price of natural gas supplied and the cost of transit.

Ukraine said it will still meet its contractual transit obligations. The dispute reached a high point on 1 January 2006, when Russia cut off all gas supplies passing through Ukrainian territory.<sup id="cite_ref-bbc240106_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-bbc240106-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> On 4 January 2006, a preliminary agreement between Russia and Ukraine was achieved, and the supply was restored.
