Gazprom confirms Ukraine’s first $1.45bn gas tranche received...
ReplyDeleteGazprom has confirmed receipt of the first tranche of $1.45 billion from Ukraine in settlement of the gas debt for earlier deliveries by Russia, company spokesperson Sergey Kupriyanov said.
On Tuesday Ukraine’s Naftogaz said it had transferred the sum to the Gazprom account as part of the unsettled gas debt.
“Gazprom received confirmation from banks of the transfer of $1.45 billion from Naftogaz for gas delivered earlier by Russia,” Kupriyanov said.
Last week Gazprom chief Aleksey Miller said gas deliveries from Russia to Ukraine could be resumed within 48 hours after the first payment is made, as well as a prepayment corresponding to the volumes of gas Ukraine expects in November, RIA reports.
