Naftogaz deficit exceeds state budget deficit – Yatseniuk

The deficit of NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine exceeds the state budget deficit and amounts to UAH 103 billion.
Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk said this at the first meeting of the newly appointed government on Wednesday, a Ukrinform correspondent reported.
“Most of all I am worried about the deficit of National Joint-Stock Company Naftogaz, which is higher than the state budget deficit. With the state budget deficit being UAH 68 billion today, the deficit of the Naftogaz company, which we have funded, because tariffs do not correspond to the market gas price, is UAH 103 billion,” Yatseniuk said.
He said that an objective of his government was to complete the reform of Ukraine’s energy system.
