Tajikistan repays part of gas debt to Uzbekistan - agency

The source said that so far, the Tajik side had only repaid a part of its 7m-dollar debt to the Uzbek partners.

"Thus, Tajikistan still has to repay 5m dollars to Uzbekistan for natural gas," the source said.

Tajikistan imports 20,000 cubic meters of Uzbek gas per hour.
