OREANDA-NEWS  In order to maintain Russian gas supplies to Moldova, the authorities of the republic must pay a debt of $ 709 million, which Chisinau does not recognize according to the results of an international audit. RIA Novosti comes to this conclusion in its own material.

The main reason for the concern of the Moldovan authorities is the impending termination of the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine, negotiations on the extension of which are not underway. The head of Moldovgaz, Vadim Cheban, noted that in this case the country will turn to the EU for help.
