KIEV, June 7 – Former Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko will come under scrutiny for negotiating eight years ago a controversial 10-year natural gas supply deal with Russia that was last week revoked by a Stockholm court.
Tymoshenko negotiated the deal directly with then-Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin in January 2009 and despite a specific warning from then-Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko not to do so.
