Gazprom Pricing 'Creative'

YUZHNO-SAKHALINSK — Gazprom may adopt a "creative" approach to gas pricing as it forms a power-

generating venture with Germany's RWE.

"If the new business model means participating in all parts of the profit chain, not only at the level of gas but also electricity, the possibility of a creative approach opens up," deputy chief executive Alexander Medvedev said Tuesday.

RWE will be able to secure gas at "competitive prices" after setting up the venture, which may include new and existing gas- and coal-fired power plants in Britain, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, Andrei Chernoshchekov, of Gazprom's foreign economic department, said late last month.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
