KYIV, March 12 – The decision to at least cut in half the price of gas for the population will be one of the first steps taken by the new government and, as a result, the tariffs for heat and hot water will decrease, the Batkivschyna Party's press service reported.

"The decision of the Kyiv District Administrative Court, which recognized the increase in gas prices by the government in 2016 as unjustified and illegal, will help revise the price of gas," Yulia Tymoshenko, the leader of the Batkivschyna party, said on the air of Ukraina TV Channel.
