Today, Ukraine's new Government, headed by Sergii Koretskyi, began its work. His strength lies specifically in his work at state-owned energy companies. He came to Ukrnafta and changed the company's processes after oligarchic control. Thanks to Sergii, Ukrnafta began truly working for our state. Naftogaz made it through a difficult winter, and despite all the Russian strikes, Ukraine remained supplied with gas. It is essential to be fully prepared for the next winter. Of course, we are investing as much as possible in Ukraine's long-range capabilities and in our mid-range strikes to make it as difficult as possible for Russia to expand its offensive against Ukraine and drag out this war. But whatever the scenario, Ukraine must be fully prepared to protect lives and its people and ensure that we make it through the winter. This is the main shared Ukrainian task for the new Government. There will also be changes in our work with partners – agreements should be implemented faster.
