Ukraine will never again let a dispute with Russia cut off supplies of natural gas to European customers, President Viktor Yanukovych said.
“This will never happen again,” Yanukovych told reporters today after meeting European Commission President Jose Barroso in Brussels. “Ukraine is obliged today to comply with its commitments to the European Union, to Russia as a transit country, as regards the reliability and stability of the work of its gas transportation network. This is an obligation we will comply with always.”
