KIEV, Ukraine canada goose womens parka, Sept. 14 (UPI) -- Kazakhstan has agreed to resume using Ukraine as a transit nation for its oil supplies to Europe buty puma damskie, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych said Wednesday. Both nations agreed to boost the transit volumes to 8 million tons per year, Russia's state-run news agency RIA Novosti reports.

Plans to build a joint liquefied natural gas station were abandoned earlier this month. Ukraine is eager to restore the image of a reliable transit country after energy price rows with Russia temporarily halted supplies to Europe. In the aftermath of the first gas conflict between Ukraine and Russia, two major Russian-European gas pipeline projects -- Nord Stream in Germany and South Stream in southeastern Europe -- were jump-started in a bid to bypass Ukraine and deliver Russian gas unilaterally to Europe. Relations between Ukraine and Russia have since improved but Ukraine is also looking westward for increased energy cooperation. After a meeting with European Commission Jose Manuel Barroso Monday in Brussels, Yanukovych vowed that gas price rows are a thing of the past. Barroso said the European Union was financing two feasibility studies for modernization of the Ukrainian gas grid. The Soviet-era gas transit system transports 80 percent of the Russian natural gas bound for Europe but it's in dire need of reform.related articles:
