根据国外媒体3月21日布鲁塞尔报道,俄罗斯能源部长诺瓦克20日在布鲁塞尔表示,乌克兰迄今拖欠俄罗斯天然气供应的累计债务增加到了24.77亿美元,其中包括罚款。
诺瓦克是计划在布鲁塞尔举行俄罗斯-乌克兰-欧盟三边能源会议召开前对采访他的媒体记者发表上述讲话的。他说,截止到3月20日,乌克兰的债务总数达到了24.77亿美元,其中包括基本债务、处罚和罚款。
诺瓦克还说,今年第二季度俄罗斯供应乌克兰天然气的价格可能定在每1000立方米348美元,这个价格中不计算折扣。
俄罗斯目前供应乌克兰天然气的价格为每1000立方米329美元。
由于乌克兰拖欠俄罗斯数十亿美元的供气款,俄罗斯在去年6月停止了向乌克兰供应天然气。然而,在去年12月份,根据三方在10月份达成的冬季天然气供应协议,俄罗斯恢复了向乌克兰出售天然气。

BRUSSELS–Ukraine's accumulated debt for supplies of Russian gas, including penalties, has grown to $2.477 billion, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said Friday.
"As of today, Ukraine's debt amounts to $2.477 billion, including the base debt, penalties and fines," Novak said ahead of a trilateral Russia-Ukraine-EU energy meeting in Brussels on Friday.
Novak also said the price of the Russian gas for Ukraine in the second quarter of 2015 could be set at $348 per 1,000 cubic meters, not counting the discount.
The current price is $329 per 1,000 cubic meters.
In June 2014, Russia halted gas deliveries to Ukraine due to its multibillion-dollar debt, however, in December gas sales to Kiev resumed under the so-called winter package agreed on in October.
