Ukraine is ready to join European Union talks on gas issues with Russia on Dec. 9, Ukrainian state energy company Naftogaz said on its Twitter account on Dec. 5.
“The talks will focus on the ‘winter package’ for the next winter,” said Naftogaz chief Andriy Kobolev, adding that Ukraine may resume direct purchases of Russian gas if Moscow agrees on a number of Kyiv’s proposals, including matters such as “price, terms of delivery, and, most importantly, on signing an additional agreement.”
