Turkmenistan stops gas exports to Iran

Iranian Petroleum Minister Rostam Hasemi said that Turkmenistan had stopped exporting gas to the republic due to disagreements about the prices.

Iran asked Turkmenistan to increase exports of gas to 40 million cubic meters daily. Iran has been exporting 15-18 million cubic meters of gas from Turkmenistan daily. The volume reaches 30 million cubic meters daily during winter periods.
