Matthew Miller, Department Spokesperson
The United States welcomes the completion of the independent audit commissioned by the government of Moldova and conducted by an outside firm to examine Gazprom’s debt claims against Moldovagaz. It should come as no surprise that Gazprom could not substantiate the exorbitant bill that Russia expected the Moldovan people to pay. The United States reaffirms its support for the Republic of Moldova’s ongoing efforts to diversify its energy sources and ensure a more prosperous and transparent future for its people.
