During the Question Hour to the Government in the Verkhovna Rada, the Minister of Energy of Ukraine Herman Galushchenko emphasized that, despite the media disinformation campaign, Ukraine will be provided with gas in the amount necessary to complete the heating season, the press service of the Ministry of Energy reports.

"Due to enemy attacks on gas production and storage facilities, the situation is indeed difficult. Of course, this year we will import much more gas. The minimum volume of imported gas that will be pumped into Ukrainian storage facilities is 4.6 billion cubic meters. Today, 2.9 billion cubic meters of imported gas have been contracted to be pumped into storage facilities. These contracts have been financially confirmed," the Minister of Energy of Ukraine informed.
