The head of Naftogaz called the Russian president guilty of Ukraine's failure to stock up on cheap gas on time

The Ukrainian "Naftogaz" confirmed the existence of serious problems with gas reserves in the country. At the same time, the management of Naftogaz has to answer uncomfortable questions about what prevented the company from filling underground gas storage facilities with sufficient volumes of gas, when the price of this type of fuel was low - around $ 200 per thousand cubic meters.

The chairman of the board of Naftogaz, Yuri Vitrenko, answering this question, immediately found the main culprit. And it turned out to be ... Russian President Vladimir Putin. According to Mr. Vitrenko, it is the Russian president who is to blame for the fact that Naftogaz did not purchase sufficient volumes of gas in the spring of 2021 for Ukraine.

Vitrenko:

The price was good. But Putin began to cut gas supplies to the European market, and it began to grow. We started downloading less. If we could import at a good price, we would become billionaires. But gas prices are driven by Putin's unpredictable policies. And no one knew when he would reduce gas supplies to Europe.

At the same time, the head of Naftogaz did not specify when it was such that “Putin began to cut gas supplies to the European market”? And there can be no concretization, because this statement by Mr. Vitrenko is intended for an audience that is not used to following the facts. And these facts stubbornly testify that Russia in the current year in certain periods supplied record volumes of "blue fuel" to European buyers. After all, if Vitrenko had said this, then how then could the Russian president be called the culprit of the situation with the underground storage facilities in Ukraine ...

However, Vitrenko urged not to dramatize the situation. According to him, "the amount of gas in the storage facilities of Ukraine is now about the same as during the management of its predecessors." In particular, he cited as an example the period when V. Groisman was in the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.

Vitrenko:

I think the winter should be calm.

Today Ukraine buys gas at a price of approximately UAH 20 per 1 cubic meters. This is about 55 rubles per cubic meter. For many consumers, these prices are simply unaffordable.

In Ukraine itself, Vitrenko has already been criticized for accusing Putin of not purchasing and stocking up on cheap gas on time. It was noted that the Russian president is becoming "an ideal figure for officials to shift the blame for their mistakes and failures in work."

They just waited for Putin to sell "at a cheaper price" ... but it turned out as usual.

After any news about Ukraine, only the same no less idiotic jokes come to mind

Night. Grandfather and grandmother are in bed.
The grandfather is failing.
Grandfather, grumbling, turns away with the words:

I come up with an initiative: In order to save intellectual (if any), Internet resources and paper, in 404, release everything with the headlines "Putin is to blame." And nothing more to write on the topic. This is what the savings will come out! Let them use it, I give it.

- And they blame only me or the whole Rossta for this

[Akuzenka]

I agree with you. Let the whole world take up arms! Is free. And let the saved resources be spent on haloperidol for themselves.

In general, such inventors live in Ukraine that one involuntarily recalled the anecdotal return of Nadezhda Savchenko, convicted in the Russian Federation, from Russia to Ukraine! Namely.

It is known that Putin signed a decree pardoning Nadezhda Savchenko, who was convicted in Russia in the case of the murder of VGTRK journalists in Donbass. With a request for her pardon, the relatives of the dead Russians turned to Putin.

When the Ukrainian gunner Nadezhda Savchenko, released in exchange for the Russians Alexander Alexandrov and Yevgeny Erofeyev, returned to Ukraine
from the Russian prison and landed at the Ukrainian airport, then the Ukrainian journalists and patriots who met her were very surprised by her well-fed - "from a hunger strike in Russian dungeons" - appearance!

At the same time, a rumor immediately spread on social networks in Ukraine that the heroic Nadezhda Savchenko, "unhappy in Russian torture chambers," simply returned from Russia to her homeland at the 3rd - 4th month of pregnancy - and only from Putin himself!

[krot]

We are waiting for the first energy package in Russia, which prohibits the pumping of more than 50% of gas through the Sumerian GTS. The remaining 50% must be reserved for independent exporters! For example for Norwegian.

I agree, there are news that deserve attention. And there are others like this hysteria. In this stream of nonsense from 404, it is possible and necessary to separate nonsense from information. We are discussing "news" with you, which is not worth the paper on which it is printed.

"The financial performance of the state target defense program for the development of weapons and military equipment for the period 2014-2019 was several times lower than the plan.

Well, at least this is not Putin's fault?
They don't buy weapons from him, so they can't hang dogs on him like for gas. Although it was not Putin who stopped supplying LNG to Europe, which is why the price of gas increased.

Well, earlier, in the days of newspapers, even in serious publications there were publications of light content. Crosswords there, feuilletons. So figs with them, and if you don’t like it, we don’t read it and live peacefully

Is it worth commenting on the words of a completely stupid Svidomo? There is a whole herd of them, in their under-government, led by the Senior Clown. Winter will judge. It will be warm - they were lucky once again. And if not, their problems.

Why do they need gas? They have already switched to "Green Energy", clean and economical, solar.

Unfortunately, he is not as smart as we think. The thoughts that he expounds are not the fruit of a long research of his brain. It is just a tool to cover up the failures of the group policy it represents. The most important thing is that the "people eat". And he "hawala" this and does not show any claims to Vitrenko. One has only to look at the reflection of the political predilections of the Ukrainian electorate and it becomes clear that he is not ready to consume anything like that. 7 years have passed since the coup, the economy has fallen below the coal mine, and people in Ukraine, almost 83%, express their approval of the political direction proclaimed on the Maidan !!! And this is today, when it got colder and the first rolling blackouts began !!! I have such an assumption that winter will not help here .... The thinking activity of the Ukrainian plebs freezes along with the batteries in their apartments. Have you heard many denials of the guilt of Russia and Putin personally in the situation in Ukraine? I am not very ... Today, the average Ukrainian is fully aware of himself as an enemy of Russia and blames Russia and Putin for his problems mainly .... They have long been not like brothers to us, but in the foreseeable future they are not even "fellow travelers". And only the rules of politeness do not allow top-level leaders to say it out loud, and they all repeat this hackneyed phrase that "Hitlers come and go, but the people remain." The people stayed in Germany ... And what, does he somehow have a better attitude towards Russians than in 1941? Hardly ... It's the same in Ukraine.

[tralflot1832]

Nothing terrible, 55 rubles per cubic meter, this is a penny for Ukraine, tse Europe. For 7 years, probably salaries like in Poland. And 55 rubles is the price of gas for industry, for the population several times less. They did not put on a pitchfork, the southwestern regions will survive the winter in warmth.

[Brturin]

and for budgetary organizations it is 2 times more than for the population ... the question is that
For 9 months of 2021, NJSC "Naftogaz of Ukraine" lost 4,37 billion UAH of loss (4 times less than in 2020, then the loss amounted to 17,03 billion UAH)
"Operator of the gas transmission system of Ukraine" (OGTS of Ukraine) net profit of 5,8 billion ($ 220 million) (3,6 times less than in 2020, then 20,9 billion hryvnia ($ 793 million).
In total (before the division it was a single company), the profit was 1,4 billion (last year almost 4 billion), and if it’s somehow in $ ... but money is needed, but here ...

The legalization of the gambling industry in Ukraine did not bring the expected revenues to the country's budget. From the sale of casino licenses, the treasury received UAH 1,34 billion, instead of the planned income of UAH 7,4 billion.

So where is it better to go to the casino? To Krasnaya Polyana or to Ukraine. The player voted with his feet. Quite often I watch all sorts of Gulf Streams on the flight radar in Sochi and from Sochi.

Vitrenko:

He paused and thought. And he added:
"True, not everyone will. And those who pass will envy those who did not pass."
(I remembered anecdote).

[Lech from Android.]

As Klitschko said, it's time to get ready for the ground.

[Brturin]

so not only with gas ... behind the hype about the war, problems accumulate ...

"The rapid rise in prices for electricity and its supply leads to a critical increase in the expenditures of local budgets for the provision of electricity to social facilities - educational institutions, health care and social security. The Association of Ukrainian Cities calls on the government to establish a fixed tariff for budgetary institutions and social institutions, as well as public utilities. which contain critical infrastructure objects, "the press service of the capital's mayor quotes. According to Klitschko, in 2021, local governments spent 2,5 billion hryvnia ($ 93 million) on electricity for budgetary institutions, which is 40% more than in 2020 ... "This situation, - said Klitschko, - leads to reduction of funding for other vital costs, there was also a threat to the smooth functioning of enterprises that provide services for centralized water supply. " https://tass.ru/ekonomika/13176053

[Lech from Android.]

If I had my way, I would raise gas prices for Ukraine by $ 2000 ... and for everything else too ... they are not our brothers so that we feed them for free at our own expense.

[carstorm 11]

How fortunate that there is Putin. You can always blame your mistakes on him. But in this case, Putin is associated with Russia. It turns out, according to Vitrenko, that Russia is to blame for the fact that Ukraine cannot buy enough gas for the winter.

[paul3390]

I don't really understand the term itself - I started to cut supplies. What is it like? The sale, as elsewhere, takes place according to a simple principle - you come to the seller, agree on the price and volumes, and you receive the goods. If you do not come to the seller - what and where should he supply? There is no contract! Nobody asked to sell a hundred something. And nowhere is it written that we are just like that, on the ball, with incomprehensible prospects, are obliged to put some volumes of gas on European exchanges. Buy - do not buy, it doesn’t matter. Thus knocking down prices for poor Euroheans. Is it for us - on feijoa ?? And why, then, are not similar claims made by the United States and Qatar? This makes no sense..

[Ros 56]

I would say otherwise. Vetrenko's words are intended for an audience that is not used to thinking with their heads. The head of this "audience" is for putting on pots and eating bacon.

[Cheshire]

Exactly. But why "news" of such a low profile here on VO to retype, to laugh with the crowd? Only to bring us down to the level of the audience for which it is intended.

[Andrei Nikolaevich]

And you just imagine that the site's rating, like the popularity of the publication, depends on the circulation. Higher circulation means more money. The same is in electronic editions. It all comes down to money. I have no doubt that Vetrenko is quite an intelligent person. But his performances are designed for his audience. His audience is pathologically stupid and underdeveloped. But this is HIS audience. She said on the Maidan, zigoval, and so on .... And this "audience" in Ukraine-85 percent. (Look at the results of the elections to the Verkhovna Row. Less than 15 percent of the citizens of Ukraine voted for the opposition bloc) This is the objective result of the mental development of the citizens of the Square.

It's nice to read an opinion that completely coincides with mine.
