"Tariffs were raised last year as a result of large-scale attacks on the energy sector. Without this decision, we would not have restored our energy system and would not have gone through the winter as we did - calmly, steadily and without blackouts," he said.
However, according to the minister, it is too early to talk about raising the price.
We do not yet understand the extent of the damage (after the last massive attack - ed.), we have not made a full assessment of the damage and it is not clear what money is needed for reconstruction. Therefore, there are currently no projects or developments to change tariffs
