KIEV: A gas talk is expected between Ukraine and Russia soon to resolve the crisis in the European countries.


“The president awaits talks between Prime Minister Tymoshenko and Russian Prime Minister Putin, during which all political problems will be removed,” his spokeswoman of the Ukraine government told reporters on Monday.

In the mean time, Russia’s gas export company Gazprom says Ukraine has signed a fresh copy of a gas transit monitoring agreement, without any added conditions.

Monday’s signing should allow the resumption of gas supplies to much of Europe, shut down because of a contractual dispute between the two countries.
