KYIV, July 27 – The Energy Ministry backs the increase in power exports and opposes its imports to Ukraine, acting Energy Minister Olha Buslavets has said.

"The Energy Ministry is in favor of increasing the export of electricity in all directions, depending on the market situation, but we are against importing it into our country, because, according to our calculations, we do not see the need for import in 2020-2021," Buslavets said at a briefing in Kyiv on Monday.

"We have enough generation capacities to meet domestic needs and have export opportunities," she added.
