Kyiv • UNN
Ukraine and Poland signed a memorandum on the establishment of a joint gas hub. It is planned to supply liquefied gas through the port of Świnoujście to Ukrainian underground storage facilities.
Ukraine's Ambassador to Poland Vasyl Bodnar said that Kyiv and Warsaw are working on organizing a joint gas hub. He told this to the TV channel “We-Ukraine”, reports UNN.
In 2024, Ukraine and Poland signed a memorandum on its equipment. The possibility of completing the relevant interconnectors is currently being considered.
“We have already signed a memorandum with the Polish side to explore the possibility of completing and supplying liquefied gas to our underground gas storage system through the gas port in Świnouść, in northwestern Poland, in order to work out such a mechanism as an element of maintaining energy security and independence from Russian supplies,” Bodnar said.
As a reminder, Poland decided not to invite the Hungarian ambassador to the ceremony of the start of Warsaw's EU presidency. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban also did not receive an invitation to the ceremony at the Grand Theater in Warsaw.
