Russian Federation has already stolen 2.2 billion cubic meters of the Ukrainian gas in Crimea, Ukraine's Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said in parliament on Tuesday, May 3.

“Earlier Ukraine was periodically accused of stealing gas. Now I can say that it is the Russians who are stealing gas – they stole our territory, stole Chornomornaftogaz, they stole 2.2 billion cubic meters of gas that was being stored in Crimea. So I’m asking: Who are the thieves?” he said.

The Hlibovske underground storage facility in Crimea belongs to state enterprise Chornomornaftogaz.
