Yulia Tymoshenko whose government was dismissed...

Yanukovych, who narrowly won the February 7 presidential election runoff in the ex-Soviet state from Tymoshenko, does not rule out that a gas transportation consortium could be established by Ukraine, Russia and the European Union.

The idea originated in 2003, but gradually faded away after Viktor Yushchenko came to power in Ukraine in 2005. During Friday"s visit to Moscow, Yanukovych said the consortium would be discussed after a new cabinet is formed in Ukraine.

"Establishment of a gas transportation consortium means giving away our strategic facility that costs at least $150 billion," Tymoshenko said on the Ukraina TV channel Friday.

She said that the gas transportation system should remain under state control.
