Yatsenyuk divides private gas production into two categories.

The Cabinet has not considered the interests of all gas companies.
The government proposes Verkhovna Rada to lower rates rent for the gas companies. Exceptions are made only for the companies operating under joint operating agreements, for which the rent rate will remain the same - 70%. Experts believe that the Cabinet with its campaign against the oligarchs will hurt private foreign investors, for whom the current fiscal burden can be fatal. At the same time, experts estimate the very decision to create different tax regimes in the same industry as discriminatory and contrary to WTO rules.
