KIEV, Oct. 8 – Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovych will travel to Moscow Tuesday for talks over 2008 natural gas supplies and gas transit to Europe, a top official at President Viktor Yushchenko’s office said Monday.

Yanukovych will hold the talks with his Russian counterpart Viktor Zubkov following last week’s warning from Russian gas giant Gazprom that supplies may be reduced due to an alleged $1.3 billion gas debt.
