Ukraine cut electricity transports to three European states - Romania, Hungary and Slovakia - because of a coal crisis affecting the internal market, AP informs. The exports to Romania are insignificant.
Ukrainian Fuel and Energy Minister spokes person Fent Di stated that the exports were cancelled because no company in Ukraine "put in bids to sell the electricity amid a coal shortage in Ukraine.
Firms responsible for about half of the ceased electricity exports are controlled by the government of Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who has lost last month's presidential vote to Yanukovych", AP reads.
