Russia will supply Belarus with gas at current contract prices, but is ready to consider offering subsidies if necessary, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said on Thursday following talks with his Belarusian counterpart Mikhail Myasnikovich.
"The Russian side has once again confirmed that it will supply gas at the current contract prices which are in effect until the end of the current year... We are ready to study state support measures from Russia so that gas supplies do not become burdensome for Belarus companies and the budget," Putin said.
