Putin sees problems emerging with Ukraine paying for Russian gas

Full story: en.rian.ru

Ukraine is again having difficulty paying for Russian natural gas supplies and the EU is not going to lend Kiev money to solve the problems, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said on Friday. "It seems we are again seeing problems emerge with [Ukraine] paying for energy supplies," Putin said at a meeting with the leadership of the ruling United Russia party. Putin added that Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko told him by telephone on Friday that President Viktor Yushchenko was blocking payments for Russian gas supplies.

Yushchenko is provoking a crisis again; that is his strategy to blackmail the EU and Russia,

Ukraine is charged a gas price that is still INFERIOR to market price, but Yushschenko forbids Naftogas to pass on the increase on to the customers, as every other country does. It's an electoral ploy to try to get re-elected next year.

In between, Naftogas is starved of funds and unable to meet its committment.
Yushschenko then ask the EU or the IMF to pay the gas bills, under threat of disturbing gas transit.

Ukraine plays that game every winter when the contract come for renegotiation.
Last year, he sent prime minister Timoschenko to negotiate and denounced the terms of the contract as soon as she came back from Moscow with an agreement .

Yes indeed... Yuschenko who has approval ratings down in the toilet... continues to disrupt the flow of gas to the EU, where there was no problem before he was put into office as a puppet as president of Ukraine...
Ukraine plays that game every winter when the contract come for renegotiation.

He is there to just cause troubles and attempting to blame it on Russia... and not even giving a hoot about what is happening to Ukraine or how the people will be suffering.... He should have been booted out long ago...

Of course Yuschenko is acting like the puppet of a government placed into Ukraine to cause troubles and hope to blame it on Russia... So he causes trouble and disrupts the flow of gas by stealing gas and refusing to pay for it... and expecting to get gas for free... There was no such problems until he got into office.... It is all done for propoganda and vilification purposes...

Tak Stefanyanka Craaappppooolichka Roccinyanka yiour rating has gone further down the toilet. How do you know if the story written is true? Tak Stefanyanka Peetachka if your beloved KGB agent and the no leader Pootiniski would sit down and talk about the gazz problems. It always appears that Pootiniski is quite all summer and then when winter is around the corner there is always gazz crisis. I am just wondering who is stirring up the trouble. Stefanyanka what do you care what is happening out in Ukraine. First you wished that your beloved commie Stalin starved all Ukrainians to death and now you would like Pootiniski freeze all Ukrainians to death. Isn't there a similarity! Stefanyanka you are capable of pointing your grubbie finger at Yuschenko and why don't you point your grubbie finger at Pootiniski and his little puppy Meddy? It is best that you Stefanyanka crapoolichka Roccinyanka mind your rotten lemons in America

Don't pay your gaz bill in Edmonton in 2 months and see what happens.

Think "pootinski" is shutting it off?
More like Encana and your local privatized conservative blessed free market.

Some seem to have a problem with Russia excercising it's free market rights.

Of course your beloved friend KGB agent and his puppet Meddy need money to pay their corrupt cronies. that is what keeps Poo pootiniski in power. Then why doesn't that no leader Pootiniski sit down like a statesman and work problems out instead to making a smear campagn to discredit Ukraine. Where do you have proof that Yuschenko stole gazz, Sterfanyanka? The only proof that you have is the gazz that came from under 65 red panties. Just like the rocciyans stole the grain, animals, all personal valueables from the Ukrainian people in the 1920 and 1930.

For your information it is illegal to shut gazz or power off to people homes during the winter months. Last winter a gazz company shut gazz to one apartment complex because the owner was behind in payments and the gazz company was warned not to do it again in the winter time. They have to sit down and work some kind of a deal or give people a chance to find a new place.

Are you stupid or just another Russophobe idiot?

Read my post #4, where I explain why Putin thinks Ukraine will create problem again.

It's a re-occurence of the crisis Yushchenko engineered last time.
Everytime, Naftogas is unable to respect its committment, and Yush and idiots like you start blaming Gazprom, Russian and Putin!!

Yushchenko who has NIL chance to be re-elected tries to sabotage Timoshenko's image by accusing her (and Russia) of price increase, shortage of energy, etc... Any deal Naftogas of Timoshenko can extract from Gazprom is systematically torpedoed by Yushchenko.

Yushchenko is just a neo-NAZI maniac, an American puppet and a disgrace for his country. He has fulfilled his job for his American handlers: created an irreparable split in his country and tried to demonise Russia.

There were monitors at the exit from Russia through Ukraine to Europe last year.

There appears to have been some "lost gaz".

Look for it Yuschenko's garage.

Yeah so?

They did it because it was a "commercial" meter servicing residential units. Point is, they won't hesitate to cut you off using some technicality hiding behind some smarmy lawyers.

Now try siphoning some of their gas off and see what happens.
