Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin will hold their next meeting in November during a state visit by Yanukovych to Moscow, the Ukrainian head of state told journalists in Simferopol on Tuesday.

"I think we will meet and discuss this problem [the gas issue] in November. A state visit and a business forum in Nizhny Novgorod are being planned. We will discuss the issue during this visit," he said.

While speaking about the results of his working visit to Moscow on October 22, Yanukovych said both sides "can see the unstable character of the issue and propose various kinds of approaches to it, [including] a package deal that could help to solve the problem."
