Ukrainian Journal quoted Naftogaz Ukrayiny said Ukraine and the European Union jointly work on a solution to purchase USD 4.2 billion worth of natural gas to fill Ukrainian underground gas tanks to secure steady gas transit to Europe.

Naftogaz said in a statement that a Naftogaz Ukrayiny team in Brussels met European Commission officials earlier Thursday to discuss two possible ways of solving the problem.

Naftogaz said in the statement that “The first one is to provide Ukraine with a loan of USD 4.2 billion. The second one is letting European companies purchase gas and store it in Ukrainian gas tanks.”
