discount on gas to Ukraine, Russia

Last week the presidents of Russia and Ukraine, Yanukovich and Medvedev, had signed an agreement who's in Kiev a 30% discount on Russian gas. In return, the Russian navy's Black Sea will remain in the Ukrainian port Sevastopol, in Crimea, for another 25 years. An agreement that the president Yanukovich has called "historical" and that would mark the end of the tension that exists between a number of years the two countries.

The Slovenian daily Delo sees this deal a clear strategy of Russia to maintain its influence in post-Soviet states.
"This agreement - according to an article today - shows that using its energy wealth to Russia is strengthening its influence on the politics of the former Soviet republics. There is no doubt about the fact that Moscow is prepared to pay any price for its imperialist policy in the field of gas.
The European Union and NATO are shown in this area, much less generous and this is the main reason for the failure or success in Ukraine, or (partially) in Georgia and even in Kyrgyzstan. And in areas where they have failed here strode forward to the Moscow government. "
