Tymoshenko called for cutting off gas supplies from Ukraine
When they say that Ukraine needs to resume gas supplies from Russia, one must understand that Ukraine already consumes Russian gas, and purchases from Europe are fictitious. In addition, Ukraine, in order to earn money at high prices, exports its own gas, although it is on the verge of an energy disaster due to low reserves.
Former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko stated this on the Nash TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In reality, since 2014 there has been a huge deception of the country, when everyone who was in power came out and said that “European gas is coming.” How can you deceive the country so cruelly and cynically?
In addition, light oil products were transported through the Novograd-Volynsk oil pipeline, as were absolutely all energy resources associated with liquefied gas from Russia. And all this was protected by the authorities of that time.
So, please tell me, what kind of conscience and heart do you need to have in order to talk about patriotism for how many years, beat yourself up with embroidery, and really calmly take all the energy resources from Russia? And now they are talking about “let’s restore.” This is how they took it all the years,” Tymoshenko said.
Now we can no longer count on gas supplies from Russia; we must stop our own exports, she called.
“Today, until the end of winter, until the end of the heating season, no one will sell gas to Ukraine, because there is a huge deficit on the market. And due to the shortage - sky-high prices. And this means that even if someone wanted to buy this gas somewhere, there is nowhere to buy it. That's why the price is so high.
Now the question is about other things. We need to stop gas exports from Ukraine. Do you understand what we're talking about? The country is on the verge of disaster, and they continue to export Ukrainian gas and sell it there for 2000-something. Ukrainian gas,” said Yulia Tymoshenko.
