The market price of gas for the population is 15 hryvnias per cubic meter, but Naftogaz provides a price of 7,96 hryvnias.

About this  informed Oleksiy Chernyshov, chairman of the board of JSC "Naftogaz" in an interview with NV.

"It is about UAH 15 per cubic meter. There is a moratorium on price increases. We will ensure the cost of UAH 7,96 for next winter." he declared.

Chernyshev noted that the difference in tariffs, like all state services, is paid for by the state budget: "that is, we are with you."

"All state services cost money. They are paid for by the state budget, that is, you and I. This difference in tariffs reduces Naftogaz's ability to pay dividends and taxes to the state budget. I am a supporter of exclusively market mechanisms, nothing else works in the world." he added.

Andriy Pavlovskyi, an expert on social policy, in turn, on his page at Facebook noted that such a statement by the head of Naftogaz indicates a possible further increase in gas prices from UAH 8 to UAH 15 per cubic meter, while the real price, in his opinion, is UAH 5.

«Currently, the official price of gas for the population of Ukraine is UAH 7,96 per cubic meter. But the chairman of the board of "Naftogaz" Oleksiy Chernyshov believes that the real market price is UAH 15. What is the "real market price" - Naftogaz's secret. It probably includes hundreds of millions in bonuses, billions in salaries and the construction of solar power plants. It is known from official sources that the cost of gas production in Ukraine does not exceed UAH 2000. for 1000 cubic meters m! Taking into account taxes and transportation, the final price for the consumer should be a maximum of UAH 5000 per 1000 cubic meters. m. But Naftogaz is pushing for pity. An apparently low tariff reduces Naftogaz's ability to pay dividends and taxes to the state budget, and reduces Ukraine's ability to implement social programs. Do you remember that at the beginning of the war, Zelensky issued a decree prohibiting the increase of gas prices and utility tariffs during the war... So it turns out that the government is acting against the president?!", Pavlovsky writes
