MINSK. Nov 3 (Interfax) - The true price of Russian gas for Belarus could be $140 per thousand cubic meters in 2007, Alexander Surikov, the Russian ambassador to Belarus, told a press conference.
"Russia has reached a decision on mutually beneficial cooperation between countries, including CIS countries, and has designated the price of gas for its partners. This is $200 for Belarus, $217 for Lithuania and a little more for Western Europe due to transit," Surikov said.
"I'm not ruling out that the price for Belarus will be not $200 but $140, taking customs duties into consideration," he said.
