Russia’s Energy Ministry predicts a gas transit contract will be reached this year with Ukraine. “We expect that, to some extent, we will be able to reach an agreement with Ukraine on the transit of gas after 2019. If this does not happen in May, it will probably happen in October,” Deputy Energy Minister Anatoly Yanovsky told TASS in Kemerovo, a Siberian coal mining town. Fearing a deal will not be reached, Hungary and Ukraine plan to stockpile gas for next winter.
