Putin: Russia will Accept Payments for Natural Gas only in Rubles

"Bulgaria has taken unfriendly, hostile steps towards Russia. That is why it will have to buy gas for rubles, whether it wants to or not, whether it likes it or not,” Peskov told reporters.

He commented on concerns expressed by Serbian President Alexander Vucic about supplies passing through the Balkan Stream gas pipeline through Bulgaria. Peskov assured that Moscow would try to solve Serbia's problems.
