what if prices for eu also rise by 30-80%?? than things would get interessting... i my view ua has no chance in rejecting this... its market economy... if they dont like the price they should buy somewhere else..

What do you mean by "also"? Actually price is left unchanged, it's a real market price as it always was..  Smiley

Until the end of February a half of the market price for Ukraine was subsidized by the russian government, now this subsidy has been cancelled. So, Ukrainian side sees effective rise of price because they no longer receive  money to handle a half of the price.   Roll Eyes
