Watching from the sidelines in Kyiv, Ukraine’s chief negotiator,

Watching from the sidelines in Kyiv, Ukraine’s chief negotiator, Naftogaz Executive Director Yuriy Vitrenko, expressed regret at the three-month delay for starting face to face talks. “The reason is obvious – after Ukraine and the EU had taken a consolidated position that transit through Ukraine should be carried out according to fair European rules, these negotiations became uninteresting for the Russian Federation,” he wrote on Facebook. “It seems that Russia is waiting for “negotiators” who will hand over the interests of Ukraine rather than agree on civilized and fair rules for all parties.”
