“Such negotiations took place, their methodology is that the price should change according to the formula inflation plus no more than 3%. Forecast inflation is 3%. What will be the final value of the tariff? This is a question as to whether the parties will come to a final understanding of the agreed transportation costs, ”he said during a press conference. His words are quoted by RIA Novosti.

If the parties do not come to reasonable volumes, then this formula will work, said Golomolzin.

“We expect that our Belarusian colleagues will make a decision for themselves in the near future,” he added.

Earlier, the head of Transneft Nikolai Tokarev said that the company does not expect the termination of oil transit through Belarus to Europe.

According to Golomolzin, the antitrust authorities of Russia and Belarus will make a final decision on tariffs by the end of January.
