Vice Prime Minister, Minister of Infrastructure and Regional Development of Moldova Andrei Spinu said that next month Moldova will buy 30% of the missing electricity from two Ukrainian companies.
The Ukrainian companies Energoatom and Ukrhydroenergo will supply Moldova with 30% of the electricity it lacks in August. Of the total capacity, 20% will go to Energoatom, and 10% to Ukrhydroenergo at the same price. Both companies will supply electricity at the same price – $77/MWh,” Spinu wrote on his Telegram channel page on Friday.
He recalled that 70% will be supplied by the Moldavskaya GRES (located in Transnistria and owned by the Russian group Inter RAO UES) at a price of $59.9/MWh, according to the contract concluded for July-August. According to the Deputy Prime Minister, the weighted average price of supplies in August will be $65.03/MWh.
“Such a price makes it possible to maintain the electricity tariff for citizens and the economy at the same level,” Spinu said.
Earlier it was reported that Moldova buys electricity from the Moldovan state district power station. At the same time, since March, contracts are concluded for only one month. This is due to the energy crisis and unstable gas prices. Because of Gazprom’s reduction of gas supplies to Transnistria in May, Moldavskaya GRES warned Chisinau that it would be able to supply only 70% of the required amount of electricity to the right bank of the Dniester. Since May, Moldova has been buying the missing amount of electricity from Ukraine.
Yesterday, the Cabinet of Ministers included the pharmaceutical industry in the list of priority sectors of the economy, thereby strengthening state support in this area. Since the beginning of the war, the main pharmaceutical companies in Ukraine have generally maintained their production capacities, while several enterprises suffered as a result of Russian strikes, in particular, in March, the warehouses of the Farmak pharmaceutical plant burned down in Makarov, Kyiv region. The damage then, according to the enterprise, amounted to about 1.5 billion hryvnia.
How important is state support for pharmaceutical manufacturers now, and will the industry be able to provide Ukrainians with medicines in full? Igor Stakovichenko, an expert in the field of economics, answered these and other questions for the Open4business portal.
In his opinion, now the production of medicines should be equated by the state with the provision of the army, since in a warring state medicine is one of the foundations of a stable situation at the front and in the rear.
“It is hard to imagine that the army will be able to fight effectively if it is not provided with high-level medical support. At the same time, the production of its own medications is strategically important for the state. Supplies from Western partners are good, but having your own working pharmaceutical industry in such a difficult time is much better And this is understood in the government,” Igor Stakovichenko believes.
According to the expert, pharmaceutical production in Ukraine today is able to provide both the army and the population with a significant part of the necessary medicines. Igor Stakovichenko believes that the government’s timely decisions taken since the beginning of the war made it possible to quickly adapt the industry to new conditions.
“In particular, back in the spring, amendments were adopted to the law “On Medicines”, limiting the export of certain vital drugs. In addition, they significantly simplified the registration of pharmaceuticals during the war, creating an emergency procedure. This was done literally on the third day. In general, the government’s decision on The inclusion of pharmaceutical production in the list of priority industries is a continuation of the policy of supporting the industry, which has been outlined since the beginning of the war. Such support should remain at the level of the main state priorities,” stressed Igor Stakovichenko.
