What has completely mystified me over the past day or so was reference out of the blue to a $100 discount per unit volume, usually / 1000 cu. meters , as being part of the lease deal on the Crimea naval base. That's aside from the $1 billion a year lease payment which presumably , until renegotiated , will go direct to Crimea : not Kiev. That wasn't a discount which cost Gazrom anything - it was internal accounting by Russia by way of a tax offset to Gazprom and that will now end.
