Yatsenyuk himself, coming to the podium, made it clear that he would continue to work. At the same time, he did not mention the failure during a closed meeting of the law on transferring the gas transportation system to the West, although recently he called this bill a condition under which Ukraine would not freeze without gas in winter.
“Today there are two main economic news in the world. First: Argentina announced a default. Second: Ukraine has not announced the default and will never announce it!” – Yatsenyuk announced victoriously from the rostrum of the Rada and promised the deputies new meetings.
