That new gas deal ($95 for 1000 kbm) means that Ukraine lost about $2 bln. And still will keep $3 bln of Russian subsidy. Gas costs $240.

"Gas costs $240."
Where ? Gas prices strongly depend on costs of transport and these are a little lower in case of Ukraine than in case of W.Europe, don't you think ? Besides the point is not that Russia demanded "market prices", but how they did It.
