Ukraine possesses sufficient amount of gas to supply all the categories of
consumers in Ukraine. Deputy head of NJSC NaftoGaz of Ukraine Board Volodymyr Trikolich announced during a press conference in the House
of Government today.

18 bn cu m of which is the gas intended for communal needs of Ukrainian
population, while another 55 bn cu m are bought by the Ukrainian Company from
RosUkrEnergo for industrial needs.
