Forming the
price on the Russian natural gas for Ukrainian consumers is significantly
influenced by the rate policy of the National Bank of Ukraine. That’s why the present situation
with the National Bank calls for immediate interference, as unless to solve this
issue the gas price will grow. The First Vice Prime
Minister of Ukraine Olexandr Turchynov announced on air of the First channel.
“The price of
gas is significantly dependant on the NBU policy. The problem is unless hryvnya
rate is stabilized, and it should be done immediately, the price will be
exceptionally high as we purchase gas for dollars while the course position of Ukraine leads to the situation that gas
price significantly raises at the account of increase of dollar rate against
hryvnya,” Olexandr Turchynov explained.
He told the
Parliament considered issues of course policy of the National Bank of Ukraine twice, expressed distrust to the
NBU leaders, but the President of Ukraine doesn’t take necessary measures to
solve the situation.
According
to the First Vice Premier, now it is within responsibility of the President of
Ukraine as, pursuant to the Constitution of Ukraine, it is head of the state who submits the proposal on
a candidature of the NBU chairman to the Parliament and it is president who
shall submit the proposal on dismissal of the NBU chairman from post: “If
Secretariat of the President and the President himself care for the consumers,
the situation with National Bank of Ukraine should be stabilized starting from
its leaders. It has to be done immediately, I consider
this is the way to solve the issue”.
