Gazprom said that Moldova's unilateral approach to auditing the debt of Moldovagaz contradicts previous agreements reached in October 2021.
According to the Russian gas holding, the meeting of the Supervisory Board of Moldovagaz JSC, scheduled for February 2, 2022, did not take place due to the absence of representatives of the Moldovan government. At the same time, it was assumed that the Supervisory Board should agree on approaches to auditing the company's debt to the Gazprom Group for gas supplied to consumers on the right bank of the Dniester, provided for by the protocol of negotiations on the settlement of problematic issues in the gas industry dated October 29, 2021. As noted in the message of "Gazprom", instead, representatives of the Moldovan government reported that the conditions for attracting an auditor have already been determined by the Moldovan side. As follows from the published documentation, it did not take into account the proposals of JSC Gazprom, previously sent to the Moldovan side. "The unilateral approach of the Moldovan side to determining the terms of the tender for the purchase of auditor services does not allow us to expect transparency and objectivity of the audit of debts of Moldovagaz JSC for the gas supplied to Moldovan consumers. This may lead to the fact that the audit results will not be agreed upon by the Supervisory Board of Moldovagaz JSC" ", - stated in the message of "Gazprom".// 08.02.2022 — InfoMarket
