ITAR-TASS: Yatsenyuk suggests EU start receiving Russian gas on Ukraine’s border with Russia

Ukraine’s parliament-appointed Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk has urged the European Commission and the leaders of EU states to start receiving Russian gas on the Russia-Ukraine border, the press service of Ukraine’s cabinet of ministers reported on Tuesday.

“We suggest transferring receiver locations for Russian natural gas to the Russia-Ukraine border and sign new appropriate contracts to allow European gas companies to use Ukraine’s vacant underground gas storage facilities in the common interests of energy security,” Yatsenyuk wrote in his letter to the European Commission leadership.

Until recently European consumers have been receiving Russian natural gas on Ukraine’s western border.
