MOSCOW, June 26 (RIA Novosti) - Russia plans to export natural gas to Belarus in 2007 at about four times the current price, a deputy industry and energy minister said Monday.
Andrei Dementyev said in a letter to the lower chamber of parliament that the price would be around $180-200 per 1,000 cubic meters in comparison with current $46.68.
The deputy minister said the price would be calculated under the same formula as the price for natural gas deliveries to Ukraine, including a zero rate customs duties for Belarus.
