The Republika Srpska (formation within Bosnia and Herzegovina) is ready to pay for Russian gas in rubles. About this in an interview with the agency “RIA Novosti” informed head of representative office in Russia Dusko Perovich.
“Gazprom renews the main contract every year, so we get the price – in fact, the market price, but according to the old formula. We are ready to pay in rubles,” he said.
Perovich also noted that it still remains a technical issue related to payment difficulties. He recalled that transfers through correspondent banks are delayed.
According to Perovic, the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina agreed to start negotiations on the construction of a gas pipeline to supply Russian gas. It is planned to be connected with the Serbian gas transmission system. Now the project is under preparation.
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, the gas company GAS-RES, owned by the government of the Republika Srpska, is registered. From June 1, 2022, an agreement was extended between it and Gazprom, according to which the Russian company will supply gas to Bosnia and Herzegovina at a price of about $290 per thousand cubic meters. m.
