Naftagas intends to bring an action against Gasprom representative
Russia-Ukraine gas conflict threatens to grow into great court examination. Naftagas intends to bring an action against Gasprom official representative Sergei Kuprianov.
The head of Naftagas called Kuprianov`s accusing Ukraine of gas theft unsubstantiated and groundless. "These were tendentious claims, proved by no documents", said Aleksey Ivchenko in the interview to Ukrainian mass-media.
