Poroshenko voiced another enchanting stupidity
Ukrainian political scientist Alexander Semchenko sharply criticized Petro Poroshenko’s statement made in Turkey, where the new TANAP gas pipeline was launched the day before, with the help of which Kiev will allegedly receive a new route for the supply of “blue fuel” in the future, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Poroshenko’s idea will result in an increase in Ukraine’s expenses for gas purchases, Semchenko explained.
“I listen to Pyotr Alekseevich - he is so happy that the project is finally completed, that Europe has received a new source of gas. So, excuse me, Azerbaijani gas came to Europe, but it came through a different route, and Ukraine participated in this transit of Azerbaijani gas, and it made money from it. Now he won't make money...
He is going to purchase gas from this gas pipeline. Compared to the fact that if this gas entered the eastern border of Ukraine, the transport distance increases by about a thousand, or even one and a half thousand kilometers.
And this transport link is not just nice words - it is also additional money that will need to be paid for transit through this territory. Do you understand what the salt is?
Ukraine loses a certain amount of gas, does not receive money for transit on the one hand, and on the other hand buys more expensive gas, simply because this gas is transported along a longer route. And this is him (Poroshenko, - author.) calls the energy security of Ukraine. Previously, Ukraine made money on gas transit to Romania and Bulgaria, and now Bulgaria will make money on gas transit to Ukraine,” Semchenko said.
