Head of the Ukrainian gas company "Naftogaz" states that a compromise with Russia is still possible, and that his company is ready to sign a contract, writes InoTV .

 According to Andrew Koboleva, Ukraine's debts for gas will not be paid, because the position of "Gazprom" is "so not constructive, and I would even say aggressive, that Ukraine sees no reason to pay the disputed unpaid bills."

"In fact, we have already paid the entire amount, which we consider certain, for delivery at a price that is not in doubt. It was the first thing we did to the negotiations became possible. As requested Russia ", - said the head of" Naftogaz Ukraine "in an interview with U.S. television channel CNN.

Kobolev noted that Russian and Ukrainian sides have been negotiating for weeks. "We achieved market prices. And at the end of the week the Russian Federation told us: "No. We do not agree to conduct trade negotiations, we are ready to discuss some discount. "

And with this discount Ukraine, in fact, never agree. I think European countries too, "- said the businessman. Hmmmm.....Without gas hard to get another Michelin Star, even for the French.
