New zrada: Ukraine is left without another grade of coal and will also buy it abroad
Ukraine faces a shortage of not only anthracite coal, but also gas coal - due to the stupidity of its own leadership. Energy market expert Valentin Zemlyansky stated this on air on the First Cossack TV channel, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.

According to him, if “A” grade coal is not imported to Ukraine due to the fact that the mines producing it are located on the territory of the Donbass republics, then the shortage of “G” grade coal arose due to the closure of state mines controlled by Kyiv.
This, Zemlyansky assures, will lead to the export of coal from abroad and, as a result, an increase in tariffs.
“In order to increase coal production, it takes at least six months. And in the situation with state mines, there is also state funding for these works for six months in advance.
We will import brand “G”. This is already clear and is no secret to anyone. We will be in short supply not only for the “A” brand, but also through our own fault. And the same will happen for the “G” brand, we will import, the only question is from where.
The closest and logistically correct is Poland. Any import will lead to higher tariffs.
I think that the most optimistic forecast that can be given for next year is 10-15% of the current ones,” Zemlyansky said.
Let us recall that earlier Petro Poroshenko agreed to purchase coal from the United States instead of the LDPR, against which official Kyiv imposed a blockade.
