“At 10:30 p.m. we received a new variant of the contract from Gazprom and a new variant of protocol between two governments. The working group remained (in Moscow –ed.), Minister Ivan Plachkov and head of Naftogaz Oleksiy Ivchenko came back… Unfortunately, all 12 articles of Ukrainian side were not accepted,” said PM of Ukraine Yuri Yekhanurov in an interview to “Era” radio Friday.

 “I don’t want to talk about propositions of Russian side. But a new aspect appeared, very interesting one – Khristenko noted that they would like to replace Turkmen gas by Russian one,” noted Ukrainian Premier.
