“It is the foundation for a stable and predictable energy system.”
Also at the conference, Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said Ukraine received the first EUR3.2 billion ($3.64 billion) tranche of the European Union’s Ukraine Support Loan.
Lithuania announced nearly EUR10 million in additional aid,
