The Russian President said that Russia has a concern about insufficient load of the underground gas storage facilities in Ukraine, report the RIA Novosti.

He made it clear Gazprom is ready to resume gas supplies to Ukraine at any time at the price of $ 180 per thousand cubic meters with a down payment. “Last year we agreed that gas prices will not go up. I would like to emphasize that agreement, since for the neighboring countries, particularly for Poland, gas prices will be different. I am not familiar with prices, but at that time Poland purchased for $184-185 thousand per cubic meter. Russia can sell gas to Ukraine for $ 180 thousand per a cubic meter, " the president said.

Putin also said that they also touched upon gas issues during the Norman Four talks on the initiative of Ukrainian. "Poroshenko asked whether Russia would restore supplies. Of course, Russia will. At any time. Nothing needs to be done for it, since we have an agreement. The only thing they would need to introduce is the down payment," he added.
