Gas supplies from Ukraine to Bulgaria and Moldova should be increased to the volume of Russian gas siphoned off in Ukraine and consigned for these countries

“Gazprom welcomes the intention of the Ukrainian party to start natural gas supplies to Bulgaria and Moldova. These supplies are to compensate for the Russian gas Ukraine was illegally siphoning off from 1 to 7 January, 2009. The volume of supplies should be increased up to the volume of the Russian gas siphoned off in Ukraine and consigned for these countries,” said Gazprom spokesman Sergey Kupriyanov.
