The Ukrainian Energy and Coal Industry Ministry has approved an agreement on natural gas purchases between Germany’s E.ON and Ukraine’s Naftogaz.
This is stated in an order signed by Energy Minister Yuriy Prodan.
“To agree on a framework contract for the sale and purchase of natural gas between E.ON Global Commodities SE and National Joint Stock Company Naftogaz of Ukraine,” reads the document posted on the ministry’s website.
