Russia and Poland have agreed on long-term gas supplies to Poland and are due to sign all formalizing documents shortly, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said.
"We have almost agreed on long-term supplies of Russian natural gas to Poland; all formalizing documents are due to be signed shortly," Putin said at a press conference on results of talks with his Polish counterpart Donald Tusk.
Warsaw has long been raising the issue of increasing gas supplies from Russia.
Russian energy giant Gazprom and Polish gas monopoly, PGNiG, also with EuRoPol GAZ signed agreements on January 27 extending gas shipments until 2045. One of the agreements stipulates increasing gas supplies from 8 to 11 billion cubic meters per year and extending the current agreement by 15 years, through 2037.
However, the changes will come into force only when new intergovernmental protocols are signed.
