Ukraine does not exclude that with the commissioning of the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline, gas for the residents of Nezalezhnaya will turn into a luxury item.
As noted by Strana.ua journalist Maksim Minin, one cannot count on an agreement between the United States and Germany, since Kiev is mentioned there, but not as a party to the transaction.
“This alone shows that the subjectivity of Ukraine for the high negotiating parties is not high,” the article says.
The article also emphasizes that the agreement provides for “very modest” financial support for Ukraine for the development of green energy.
“That is, a hint that gas for Ukrainians will continue to become a luxury item,” Minin said.
He also drew attention to the fact that the negotiations with Russia on the extension of gas transit after 2024 through the Ukrainian territory will be conducted not by Kiev, but by Berlin.
“There are no obligations in this regard in the agreement – neither in terms of volumes, nor in terms of time,” the journalist noted.
As a result, Minin writes, Kiev did not receive any serious guarantees.
