ANKARA - Reports about Azerbaijan increasing the price of natural gas it sells to Turkey is simply false, Energy Minister Hilmi Güler said yesterday.

Speaking at the headquarters of the Justice and Development Party, or AKP, Güler said he has held meetings with Azerbaijani officials for the past two days and no such price increase was mentioned. Daily Cumhuriyet reported yesterday that the Azerbaijan government had decided to increase the price of gas after the recent developments between Armenia and Turkey.

Citing the head of the state-owned Azerbaijan Petroleum Company, or SOCAR, Rovneg Abdullayev, the daily said the price increase to the gas would be effective as of April 15. Güler said the report was false and that the contract precluded such price increases.
