STEVE INSKEEP, Host:
Those two neighbors have been feuding over prices since the start of this year. The dispute has been a huge problem for many European countries that import their Russian gas by way of Ukraine. Many parts of the continent were left without gas in the middle of winter.

Ukraine's prime minister headed to Russia today to sign that agreement.
