"As for the transit of the Russian natural gas through the territory of Ukraine, we are ready to maintain it based on economically-viable conditions and a fair settlement of all legal disputes between PJSC Gazprom and NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine," Prikhodko said, TASS News Agency reports.
He added that "in order to achieve this aim it is necessary to coordinate relations between the involved companies".
He stressed that the concept of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline project, which is currently under construction, did not provide for the termination of natural gas transit "along the routes via Ukraine as well as other countries."
"Russia has repeatedly stated its readiness to maintain gas transits via the Ukrainian gas distribution system after 2019 based on the mutually acceptable terms," Prikhodko said.
