Gas. <\/strong>Romania supports the position of the European Union with regard to
\nRussia’s demand that its gas must be paid in roubles, said the Romanian economy
\nminister Virgil Popescu. He said Romanians have no cause for fear because
\nneither the Romanian state, nor its companies have direct contracts with
\nGazprom. German chancellor Olaf Scholz said the EU and the G7 believe Russia is
\nnot entitled to demand payment for gas deliveries in roubles and that European
\nstates will continue to pay in euros and dollars as laid down in the contracts.
\nGazprom has already sent notifications to its customers about the transition to
\nthe new payment scheme in roubles that came into force on Friday after an
\nultimatum from Russian president Vladimir Putin. Kremlin’s spokesman Dmitry
\nPeskov said Moscow will not stop deliveries for the time being and that
\npayments for deliveries made after 1st April will be made in the
\nsecond half of the month and in May. <\/p>\n
