Are natural gas payments delayed until after the election? | Aydın Sezer: “Turkey’s natural gas bill this winter is $15 billion, not new to us”
We received BOTAŞ’ natural gas payments to Russia from Russia. It came as it was on target. Aydın Sezer, whom they will send to answer these questions, “Turkey has these two of its own. BOTAŞ has been working hard for a regulation that will reduce the prices in natural gas imports and for payment and payments in TL.” he said.
We came here to go because Pipelines and Petroleum Transport Joint Stock Company (BOTAŞ) benefited from their salaries from the state company Gazprom and some of Turkey’s payments were due to go until 2024. It will be selected in Turkey, the smaller part of the increased energy will be enlarged to a larger extent, no explanation will be made from the relevant information and no official request will be made on this issue yet.
AKP Chairman and President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, on September 25, “If inflation is having a good time at reasonable things in February, there are single-digit dreams” he said. Erdogan and AKP, who repeat the same words many times, promise to reduce inflation to 2023 electors. Delaying and shortening the payments, one of the most important energy costs, after the election, will make it easier.
“Turkey has three demands from Russia”
Russia’s natural gas issue, which was evaluated for Medyascope for the postponement of payments to Gazprom, drew attention from Russia. Caesar,”Turkey has made three main demands for natural gas in the last two months. the subject of another revision of the purchase price, payment of the second fuel in one ruble and payment with other material treasureshe said.
“The natural gas bill to be paid for this Russia winter is 15 billion dollars”
Stating that information can be given about the price reduction and even if this is an improvement, Sezer stated that he will explain it openly.This is already the future, what is being talked about in the Turkish and Russian markets, and the issues confirmed by the people who came in contact with Russia.” said. Confident that 25 percent of natural gas payments are estimated in rubles, Sezer said:
“This issue is now being addressed. Yes, Turkey has more content than that. Because this gain will continue, especially during this year and will be the first three projects to come, the payments to be paid are evaluated as 15 billion dollars. This money is paid by any investment to be spent on a sum of great importance to him. This topic is clear, there is no question of this comparison.”
“Mir ready does not affect Turkey’s ruble income much”
Mir, which helps with the payment priority of the USA, consists of those who help with the payment priority, and Denizbank, then the public banks Ziraat Bank, Halkbank and Vakıfbank, the MIR payment was reserved. Sezer, we talked about the ruble income that Turkey will use in natural gas payments if these banks exit the system:
“A system that does not have a Mir payment system, which is important to Turkey, will be used. Because Russians can withdraw money within the withdrawal limits of banks. So it’s a coin used for one person. The input sources of the ruble coming to Turkey are different. With foreign trade, luggage and cargo, incoming suitcases and rubles are issued. Among these alternatives, the Mir system has such an important place.”
Parliamentary question from CHP’s Ahmet Akın
Ahmet Akın, Deputy Chairman of the CHP for Energy and Infrastructure Projects, submitted a question request to the Speaker of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey, Fatih Dönmez, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, regarding the decision to postpone some of the natural gas payments of BOTAŞ until 2024. Akın is about to turn to Minister Dönmez:
“You are giving a loan to pay BOTAŞ’ winter gas for 2022-2023? Will these loans be treasured?
It is stated in the public opinion that ‘a loan has been taken from Russia to pay the amounts to be paid’. Is BOTAŞ on loan from Russian banks for the winter months of 2022-2023? How to make this loan from china made in china?
What is BOTAŞ’ debt? How much of this debt is due? How much of the debt is in money?
Which legal or natural persons are the creditors of BOTAŞ? Is BOTAŞ creditor legal or natural persons or sexual? Is it general use from real or legal persons that must be taken from BOTAŞ’s insurance?
Has it been used from borrowing from uses from departments related to your ministry’s debts?
5.75 billion cubic meters of Turkish Stream, 16 billion cubic meters of Blue Stream and 10 billion cubic meters of Iranian gas purchase contracts purchased in 2024-2025 and 2026 in Russia Turkish Stream are bits, so BOTAŞ will be purchased in their receivables for the purchased payments, they will be purchased. Will he buy it?”
