Turkish minister denies reports of gas price hike by Azerbaijan
ANKARA - The Turkish energy minister denied on Sunday the news that
Azerbaijan had raised the price of natural gas it was selling to
Turkey.
Hilmi Guler said that the stories that Azerbaijan had raised the price
of natural gas it was selling to Turkey were not accurate.
"I am having talks with the Azerbaijani executives for two days, and
they haven't said such a thing. There is no rise," Guler told
reporters.
Guler also said that two countries had signed a contract, and it was
not possible for Azerbaijan to do so.
Some Turkish newspapers published reports in their Sunday editions
that Azerbaijan had raised the price of natural gas it was selling to
Turkey as a reaction to Turkey's rapprochement with Armenia.
