In recent days, Lithuania and Gazprom have locked horns over the Baltic state's decision to unbundle
-- or separate the distribution and transportation segments of -- its gas market. Though Lithuania's decision follows an EU directive, Russian officials have slammed the move because Gazprom owns approximately one-third of both Lithuania's distribution and transportation networks. Under the government's plan, Gazprom will have to sell its share in the transportation network. On Thursday, Gazprom announced that it had filed suit against Lithuania in international arbitration court over the issue.
