“The same story happened with the American company, which invested a lot of money to search for gas fields in Ukraine. Searches yielded a negative result. Found deposits would give a minimum income. Today’s statement by Poland together with Ukraine is the answer for Ukrainian citizens who may freeze this winter. The authorities want to show that they are looking for sources of alternative gas. But this is a departure from the problem that Ukraine faces in concluding a new gas agreement, ”said Vodolatsky.

Earlier in Warsaw, the ceremony of an agreement between the Polish concern PGNiG and the company "Energy Resources of Ukraine" on a joint search and production of gas on Ukrainian territory was held.
