Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman says that the newly created Cabinet will tackle the issue of setting prices of gas and will do it in the most transparent way.
”We`ll have to take many different unpopular decisions, in particular, the adoption of economically grounded prices of gas. I`m aware that this needs to be done. And we`re now working on it, to make it public, open and understandable,” he said at a briefing in the government on Wednesday.
At the same time, he stressed he would not stand any abuse in the sector.
”Turnover there is estimated at billions [of hryvnias], which do not work for Ukrainian society. Have no doubt that the margin and the difference [between purchase price and cost] are siphoned to the pockets of those who are around,” he said.
”But we would act in the most professional way, taking into account the national interests,” he pledged.
