KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine has signed a new agreement to buy Russian gas over the next three months at $248 per thousand cubic meters, the Ukrainian energy ministry said in a statement on Thursday.
Apart from the price, the agreement extended all the other terms of the 'winter package' which has just lapsed between Ukraine's state gas concern Naftogaz and Russia's gas giant Gazprom
The agreement represented a "victory" for an economic approach to relations between Naftogaz and Gazprom over a political one, Energy Minister Volodymyr Demchyshyn was quoted as saying on the energy ministry's website.
