Price of Russian gas to remain unchanged for Belarus
Russian gas will cost for Belarus as before - $132 per 1000 cubic meters, Belarus Prime Minister Andrei Kabyakou told Mir 24 TV channel.
He reminded that on the market a seller wants to sell his commodity at a higher price and a buyer seeks to buy at a lower price. However, Belarus and Russian found a solution in how they treat the price of natural gas based on the agreements signed in the framework of Eurasian Economic Union, Kabyakou noted. "The cost is as it is - $132 per 1000 cubic meters. But we are happy with the accompanying decisions," BELTA quotes the Belarusian Prime Minister as saying.
Kabyakou also said that Belarus and Russia are expected to have created a common electrical energy market by 2019 and a common oil and gas market by 2025.
