Armenia and Russia are yet to agree on the gas price, according to acting Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan.

During a Facebook live he made several remarks about his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin held in Kremlin on December 27.

“There no decision on the gas price yet, but I am optimistic about it and I believe we will get a desirable outcome. In any case, we won’t have an undesirable outcome,” said Pashinyan, adding that both parties understand the sensitive nature of this topic regarding bilateral relations.

The current Armenian-Russian agreement, which sets the price for Russian gas at USD 150 per 1,000 cubic meters, is expiring on December 31.
