Kiev hopes to come to a common opinion in July on the restoration of gas supplies from Russia, said the Head of the NJSC "Naftogaz of Ukraine" Andrey Koblevo.

"We hope that the next round will take place, maybe in July, unfortunately, in the coming month they will be on leave. I would not like very much to delay until September, but before the end of September will have to come to a common opinion. To come to a common opinion about all the new gas pack. We had a winter package in the past year, we need the same package for the following year. That is, the validity period is the cost, it's the rules of gas supply, it's the rules of the advance, it is also very important, the point of gas supply. All this has to be in a new package, without that this package does Not make sense ", - said Koblev on the last working day of the week on air of the Ukrainian 5th channel.

The Koblev again said that Ukraine is Not satisfied with the cost of gas proposed by the Russian side, as on the reviews of Kiev it uncompetitive in comparison with the price of reverse gas from EU.

The head of "Naftogaz" has supplemented his words by the fact that Kiev has an alternative way of supplying gas in reverse from the EU.

"we have an alternative source is the European gas, such a possibility of downloads. The main limitation that has "Naftogaz" is the financing, the problem is Not the volume of gas, and funding, We work with the international lenders, and Ukrainian banks, " he added.
