Naftogaz justifiably requires Gazprom to unblock the opportunity to receive gas from Turkmenistan, gas from independent producers in Russia, and gas for Gazprom’s European counterparts on the Ukraine-Russia border, said Vitrenko.
Earlier, the Ukrainian Minister of Energy and Environment, Alexei Orzhel, said that Kiev allows the possibility of importing gas from Russia.
In mid-May, it was reported that Russia was discussing with Turkmenistan the possibility of concluding a new five-year contract for the purchase of Turkmen gas.
