Prime Minister Nicolae Ciuca stated, on Wednesday, that Romania is unaffected at this time, after Gazprom has cut off the supply of gas to Bulgaria and Poland."I had a discussion, after we returned to the country this morning, with the Minister of Energy.

Supply will be interrupted until payments are made, Gazprom said.
