Pyotr Poroshenko, located at the NATO summit in Brussels, He commented on the situation with Russian gas purchases. According to Poroshenko, Ukraine "is part of Europe", and therefore effective could be the purchase of gas from Russia on the Ukrainian-Russian border. The President of Ukraine said, that this method of acquiring gas from the Russian Federation "would remove all innuendo" and "would help prevent harmful for Europe" construction of the pipeline "Nord Stream-2".
Poroshenko:
Today, I want to mention, "Nord Stream-2" is threatening the security of Europe. Why spend tens of billions of dollars, to make the European economy less efficient, less competitive, and energy policy of the EU more dependent on Russia?
In this way, Poroshenko proposal is, that previously we discussed in the expert community: Europeans sell gas fkticheski right on the Russian border. Why this idea is now Petro Poroshenko suddenly picked up? The thing is, that in this case the Europeans have pretty invest in the Ukrainian gas transport system for sustainable transit of Russian borders. This would save the Ukrainian GTS, whose future is under a big question.
Recall, that a few weeks ago, Europe went to the head of the Lviv city administration and the head of the "Self-help" party Andriy Sadovy. He suggested that the Europeans actually buy Ukrainian "pipe" in the property, to ensure the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine. Poroshenko, as it appears, I decided, his politically bypass, and therefore actually voiced the same idea since the NATO rostrum.
Europeans think. "Nord Stream-2" construction.
Вопрос только один, а Украина сможет покупать Российский газ для Европы? там объемы немаленькие, а денег у Украины нет…
