It is reported by RIA Novosti.

According to him, the Russian side is in constant contact with the company, which in Ukraine should become an independent gas transportation operator.

“Our consultations are also held in Vienna, we are discussing an inter-operator agreement, we are discussing a transport agreement, there are a lot of issues. Including these are issues that concern the tariff matrix. These are very, very high tariffs, significantly higher than the current tariff at which we are now transiting gas through Ukraine to Europe, ”he said.

Along with this, Miller did not specify exactly which figures are in question.

Earlier, Minister of Energy and Environmental Protection of Ukraine Oleksiy Orzhel announced the possibility of problems in the operation of the Ukrainian gas transmission system in February-March in the absence of a transit agreement and the arrival of severe cold weather in the country.

Director of the Center for Geopolitical Research at the Institute for Innovative Development Dmitry Rodionov, in an interview with the FAN, commented on the situation with negotiations between Russia and Ukraine on gas.
