Russia and Ukraine try to find a solution to standoff

Russia and Ukraine try to find a solution to standoff:

"Gazprom management met a Ukrainian official on Monday.  Bilateral cooperation in the gas sector between Russia and Kiev was addressed.

‘Particularly, the parties discussed Ukrainian gas transmission system readiness for uninterrupted transit of Russian natural gas to Europe during the upcoming winter period. In this regard, special attention was paid to the progress with gas injection into underground storage facilities by Naftogaz Ukrainy,' reads a note released by Gazprom on Monday.

Alexey Miller, Chairman of Gazprom’s Management Committee, met Yury Boiko, Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine, at a moment when Moscow is concerned about a flood of European goods entering the country if Kiev signs a free trade agreement with the EU."
