The new formula, which the Ukrainian side is going to offer the IMF, will allow to avoid growth of prices for gas on 15%.
“According to the new proposal of the government, gas prices will rise by 4.8% compared to 17.6%, which is required by the existing system”, – said the interlocutor of the edition.
