The EU is convinced that all the parties should be interested in Ukraine as the important country for Russian gas transit. This is stated in the draft report of the European Commission at the progress towards the Energy Union, according to Ukrinform.
The Ukrainian economy is beginning to stabilize as is the security situation in the country, European Commission (EC) Vice President Valdis Dombrovskis has said, adding that it is crucial for the Ukrainian economy to return to growth as soon as possible.
A source in the European Commission has denied the statement of Ukrainian Energy and Coal Industry Minister Volodymyr Demchyshyn that an agreement with Russia on gas supplies could be signed on September 25.
