Gazprom not commenting on Ukraine's gas debt
Russia's JSC Gazprom is not commenting on a $7-billion debt of Ukraine for consuming less gas than agreed, Gazprom's spokesman Sergei Kupriyanov told Ukrainian journalists on Monday, UKRINFORM news agency reports.

“We are not commenting on this issue,” he said.

Kupriyanov also refused to answer a question on the amount of gas, which is billed, as well as the company's future plans for debt collection.

As a reminder, on January 26, media reported that Russia's Gazprom demanded that Ukraine pay 7 billion dollar for failing to import an agreed amount of natural gas.
