Iran to lodge complaint against Turkmenistan
Tehran (KNA) - ranian Minister of Petroleum Bijan Namdar Zanganeh told the media on Monday that Iran’s complaint against Turkmengas is two-fold.
"We are planning to take dispute with Turkmenistan's state owned gas company, Turkmengas, over the quality of the delivered gas to International Court of Arbitration," said Bijan Namdar Zanganeh, the Iranian Minister of Petroleum, on Monday.
He added that Iran is planning to lodge another complaint against Turkmenistan over the price, as Mr. Namdar Zanganeh holds that the price set by the Turkmens is too high, and they should review it."
Tehran and Ashgabat are reciprocally following complaints against each other," recounted the Iranian oil minister."They are claiming that Iran owes them $1.5 billion in payments for gas delivered to Iran, but we hold that we have paid off our debt and the number is not correct," said the Iranian minister.
