Belarus has no debt to Russia for gas, BelTA reported referring to the press service of the ministry of energy.

Payments for the supplied natural gas are carried out by Belarusian gas supplying organizations with Gazprom Transgaz Belarus under the concluded agreements, the press service said.

According to the ministry, at present, there are disagreements between business entities on determining the cost of natural gas supplied, taking into account its calorific value. 

“The settlement of the issues is in the competence of business entities,” the press service added.

According to RIA Novosti, Gazprom chairman Alexey Miller said the company was ready to begin talks on gas supplies to Belarus for the period from 2021 after resolving the issue with the country's gas debt of $ 165.6 million.
