Yildiz: there are no problems with Russia in the negotiations on a gas discount

An agreement on a discount on the Russian gas supplied to Turkey has been reached, but it is not signed yet, Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Taner Yildiz said during the Turoge-2015 oil and gas conference in Ankara.

In February, Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Taner Yildiz said Moscow and Ankara agreed on a 10.25-percent discount on the Russian gas supplied to Turkey.

"All the talks about problems in the negotiations with Russian partners are groundless. I have already said about reaching a 10.25% discount. This means it is because I represent the official source of information," Yildiz said. "The documents on the discount have not yet been signed, but that's a technical detail. The main thing is that we have agreed," RIA Novosti cited the Turkish Minister.
