ST. PETERSBURG (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 06th June, 2019) T. PETERST. PETERSBURG (Pakistan Point news / Sputnik - 06th June, 2019) BURG, June 6 (ST. PETERSBURG (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 06th June, 2019) putnik), Anastasia Dmitrieva - The ministerial meeting of the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) may be held in Moscow in October, instead of Caracas where it had initially been expected to take place, Yury ST. PETERSBURG (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 06th June, 2019) entyurin, the secretary general of GECF, told ST. PETERSBURG (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 06th June, 2019) putnik in an interview on Thursday.

"There is a possibility that a ministerial GECF meeting will be held in early October in Russia. The ministerial meeting was supposed to be held in Caracas in Venezuela, because Venezuela is GCEF President this year. But the internal problem in Venezuela is quite troubling and the country has to work a lot to hold this kind of meeting on a good level. That's why a number of countries volunteered to support Venezuela and offered their venues instead. In July we will make a decision," Sentyurin said on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.
