Ex-Prime Minister of Ukraine and BYuT leader Yulia Timoshenko commented on the agreement on gas supplies signed by Naftogaz Ukrainy and Gazprom in the air of Ukrainian Channel 5.
“According to our estimation, RosUkrEnergo earned $2-2.5
billion on the Ukrainian resources. We could have paid for transit of
the Turkmen gas through Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and Russia in cash,
which is envisaged by international conventions, and the saved gas we
could have given to Ukraine.
RosUkrEnergo belongs to people, who are
well known to Ukrainian Security Service, founders of the company
are well known to the Ukrainian president, and today some other
measures should be applied towards these people. The whole gas crisis
was provoked artificially to lift up RosUkrEnergo and portray it as
savior of Ukraine and let it earn $2 billion on Ukraine’s problems,” said Timoshenko, REGNUM reported.
