"Oriental Oil Company is a fictitious company, it does not exist, and the contract was legally cancelled," Comanescu told the daily on Tuesday, trying to explain the source of the dispute. "This firm with the main offices in Dubai has transferred, without our acceptance, the use of the oil rigs to the Iranian firms."
“Kompanija Orijental oil je fiktivna firma, ne postoji, i ugovor je legalno poništen,” izjavio je za gore pomenuti dnevni list Komanesku u utorak, pokušavajući da objasni poreklo spora. “Ta firma, sa centralom u Dubaiu, prebacila je, bez našeg pristanka, pravo na korišćenje naftnih platformi iranskim firmama.”
