Russia, Ukraine to determine lease payment procedures for Sevastopol naval base after 2017
19.01.2011
According to Kudrin, in the new agreement the parties should determine procedure of consideration for gas price discounts as a source of lease payment for BSF naval base in Sevastopol after 2017.
He pointed out that certain parameters had not been determined yet, since they would depend on "the fact of gas deliveries, volumes and actual price which will determine the sum of considerable discount". Kudrin reminded that the Russian-Ukrainian agreement signed in Apr 2010 specified conditions for such discount determination when gas price is higher and lower than $336 for 1,000 cubic meters.
In his turn, Ukrainian minister of finance F. Yaroshenko said: "It is very important that we understand each other; we should develop a unified technique to be really implemented. We have agreed that the steps would be prompt".
