In Vienna, Russian and Ukrainian teams negotiated Saturday and Sunday the details of a 5-year, 225 billion cubic meter gas transit pact. Late Saturday, Naftogaz CEO Andriy Kobolev reported progress, but added: “The struggle is for every comma.” A key sticking point is a tariff. Ukraine wants to retain transit fees near the current level of $3 billion a year. The current 10-year transit contract expires at 10 a.m. on Wednesday.
