Korean train manufacturing firm Hyundai Rotem has renewed its maintenance services for 90 subway trains in Ukraine, securing an additional 65 billion won ($59.6 million), according to The Korea Herald.
The Russian gas monopoly Gazprom has applied to the state-owned operator of Ukraine's gas transportation system Ukrtransgaz to increase gas transit through Ukraine due to the planned shutdown of the Nord Stream gas pipeline for maintenance, according to the press service of National Joint-Stock Company Naftogaz of Ukraine.
The Nord Stream gas pipeline, which Russia's gas monopoly Gazprom uses to transport natural gas along the bottom of the Baltic Sea to the EU countries bypassing Ukraine, has stopped operations for scheduled repairs on September 11-22, according to the website of Nord Stream AG, operator of the gas pipeline.
