VIENNA, March 31. /TASS/. Austria expects Gazprom will provide details about the currency required to pay for Russian gas supplies, Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer said on Thursday, referring to Russia’s demand to pay for gas in rubles from April 1.
"The fact is that Austria has valid contracts with Gazprom in euros and dollars. In Germany, the situation is the same," he said on OE-24 television. "We haven’t yet received any other information from Gazprom that there will be some change in the contract by Gazprom."
"We must now wait for what will be presented to us in order to make an assessment," he said.
