«At a meeting held with oil traders doing their business in Crimea, we reached an agreement to gradually transfer petrol stations to prices on fuel set by Russia, which are significantly lower than those in Ukraine... Fuel and diesel fuel delivery channels and storage tanks have been formed to disperse fuel that will be supplied by the biggest Russian companies. Starting from May 1st the Crimean car drivers will be able to refuel at costs equivalent of the average prices in Russia», - he wrote.
In so doing, the petrol stations of the Ukrainian operators, according to Rustam Temirgaliev, have to register as business entities on the peninsula in line with the rules set out in the Russian legislation and to receive a status of a taxpayer to the Crimean budget.
