Proceeds discussion concerning the court decision in Stockholm in the matter of National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine" and PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" — the last statements and comments of experts

of the Accurate decision on, whether to resume purchases gas at Russian Federation after a verdict of the Stockholm vessels, National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine" yet did not accept. The commercial director of the Ukrainian companies declared it Yury Vitrenko on air "Gromadsky TV" in the evening on December 26.

according to the official, after the decision of the Stockholm arbitration Ukraine had an opportunity to buy the Russian gas "at the market price without overpayment for transportation".

" the Difference that if we buy to Russian Federation, we buy on border Russian Federation — Ukraine and respectively we do not pay for transport. If we buy this gas at Slovakia, Poland or Hungary, market price Slovakia includes transportation cost from the German hub in Slovakia. That is this price is Slovakia a little higher than a price there is Germany. Now we have an opportunity to buy gas to Russian Federation at the price slightly lower", — explained Vitrenko Youri.

However, were emphasized by him, whether straight lines of purchases will be renewed — it is a single issue which in Kiev yet did not resolve:

"Because except the price there are still other aspects, all of us perfectly understand, the policy, war …"

Also in National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine" let know that do not intend to pay to PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" $2 billion within a verdict of vessels. According to Kiev, the final balance of calculations becomes known in February, 2018 — after removal by arbitration of the second decision on contracts on transit.

"We this figure do not confirm

. We wait for transit tribunal. It has to end in February. At the end of February we will know full figure" — Andrey Kobolev declared to chapter of companies Andrey Kobolev

A Vitrenko Youri reminded that there are percent which according to claim requirements "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" to PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" under the transit contract are every day, and they make from $1 million to $3 million daily.

the Key conclusion of the decision of the Stockholm arbitration — about what avoids to tell "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" — actually is its negative influence on the market of gas Ukraine, the Ukrainian expert, the member of the Supervisory board of Institute of power strategy Korolchuk Youri makes comments to the press. According to him, the court decision Stockholm conducts to the accelerated expression Ukraine with the market of gas of EU, to reduction of a role Ukraine as transit state and to strengthening of a role of intermediaries in the gas market of the country.

"The decision of arbitration Stockholm actually gives

to PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" without the special conflicts to finish process of minimization of the relations with "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"". This process was begun in 2010 and now approaches to end. And PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM", most likely, certainly rejoices to such decision of the Stockholm arbitration … And if "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" together with his head Andrey Kobolev, or his international consultants, also see in it joyful news, only for one reason. They during all this time actually accompanied in it to PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" and Ukraine from the European market of gas occupied policy of conscious replacement. After all "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" already now occupy a place and in the future even more international traders, exchange speculators and any intermediaries will borrow. Earlier the market of gas Ukraine was controlled by intermediaries in "Rosukrenergo" type, and now it there will be intermediaries from outside EU", — were declared by Korolchuk Youri.

"And, unfortunately, the decision of the Stockholm arbitration in such look does not give chances for Ukraine as for the transit state and as for the state — the buyer of gas. "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" as it stands, his heads led by Andrey Kobolev only help PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM", Russian Federation to embody in separately taken gas sphere the known thesis that "there is no such country — Ukraine". Ukraine will turn into a platform for trades and gas transit by the European traders and companies, on the one hand, and Russian Federation — on the other hand", the expert continues the thought.

by words Korolchuk Youri while "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" to self-forgetfulness told about the Stockholm arbitration, the European partners Ukraine (and the same Snam, Eustream, Gasunie, GRTgas) in the gas sphere at full speed conducted negotiations with PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" about transit and gas purchase after 2019.

"As well as PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" in return actively improved the brotherly relations with companies from EU. Also it is possible not to doubt that about "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" and the state Ukraine anybody there did not speak. As result, "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" will force out from the European market of gas, and its place will be taken by the European partners of PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM". And a result of activity of a present administrative board "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" becomes transfer controls behind the gas market Ukraine to the foreign companies together with PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" — the expert predicts.

information agency "REGNUM" reminds that the day before the vice-chairman of board of PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" Alexander Ivanovich Medvedev declared that court Stockholm satisfied in basic provisions claim PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" to "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"". Also the representative of PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" noted that the full satisfaction court requirements of the Russian companies would result in bankruptcy not only "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"", but also Ukraine as the states. He added that while the Russian company did not receive payments for the put gas which were collected by court, and in three days of delays "National joint-stock company "Naftogaz Ukraine"" owes PUBLIC JOINT-STOCK COMPANY "GAZPROM" nearly 2 million dollars.

"How it is represented by the Ukrainian party, is called: spit in eyes — all God's dew", — were declared, besides, by Alexander Ivanovich Medvedev.
