Belarus to get Russian gas at $165 per thousand cu m at border in 2014

Belarus will receive Russian gas at $175 per thousand cubic meters in 2014.

"At the start of [this] year the price of gas for us was $165.5 at the border, and now this is just below $163 per thousand cubic meters. Given the growth in oil prices there will be some increase in the cost [of gas], of course, but not much. It'll be $175 per thousand cu m [in 2014]," Belarusian First Deputy Prime Minister Vladimir Semashko told reporters.
