On December 9, Vladimir Putin, speaking of a contract for the supply and transit of gas, quoted the poem "And we have gas in our apartment, and you? ... And you have it, and it will be."

“And we have a gas pipeline. And this is the balance, ”RIA Novosti quoted Zelensky as saying.

He also expressed confidence that the contract for gas transit through Ukraine would be extended.

According to him, the new contract will be based on economic interests.

Zelensky previously estimated the likelihood of extending the contract for gas transit from Russia to Europe through Ukraine from January 1, 2020.
