MINSK, Dec 29 (Reuters) - Belarus is sending a delegation to Moscow on Friday in a last-minute attempt to settle a gas pricing dispute with Russia, which is threatening to disrupt gas supplies to Europe, a Belarus official said on Friday.
"A delegation headed by deputy energy minister Eduard Tovpenets will fly today to Moscow at 14.00 (12:00 GMT). The aim is to sign a contract. We hope to do it before the New Year," said the official from Belarus Energy Ministry.
