Energy and Coal Industry Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Demchyshyn has accused Deputy Minister of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine Vadym Hlamazdin of delaying the process of agreeing the bill on the electricity market.

"The things that Hlamazdin has been doing in the past two months are only in your favor," he said during the discussion with a representative of DTEK Oleksiy Zakharchuk at a roundtable held in Kyiv on February 19.

He said that the process of agreeing is being hindered by holding additional roundtables and the necessity of receiving more comments and conclusions.

The minister expressed hope that the bill will be soon sent to the cabinet for agreement and registered in the parliament in March.

The press service of DTEK said in a press release on February 19 that Rinat Akhmetov's DTEK backs the reform of the electricity market.
