Energy Minister: All conditions are in place to speed up the resolution of the gas hub issue in Turkey

Despite the fact that the specific timing of the implementation of the gas hub project in Turkey has not yet been precisely determined, at present all the necessary conditions have developed in order to expedite the adoption of a final decision on this issue. This was stated by Russian Energy Minister Nikolai Shulginov.

In his commentary to journalists, the head of the Ministry of Energy noted that now all the conditions have developed to speed up the resolution of the issue on the gas hub in Turkey.



In October last year, the presidents of Russia and Turkey instructed the relevant departments to work out in detail the issue of creating a new gas hub in Turkey. The creation of a new hub will make it possible, in particular, to redirect Russian gas supplies from the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline damaged as a result of the terrorist attack.

According to Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Novak, the project includes not only the creation of a trading platform in Turkey, but also the development of related infrastructure, as well as an increase in gas supplies in the southern direction. Also, other countries supplying gas to Europe in this direction, such as Azerbaijan, Qatar and Algeria, can also take part in the project.

The President of Turkey, during one of his recent speeches, promised his supporters to implement the project proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin to build a gas hub.

Economists estimate that the opening of a new gas hub could bring Turkey additional revenues of $30-35 billion.

    Who cares about a lousy bath - "our government" is in a hurry to bend under the Turks in order to further sell Russia's natural resources. Or is it such a "cunning plan" for anti-slipping from the "hydrocarbon needle" ???

      What timid questions - even ask when they will start hanging - "come with your own rope, or will the trade union issue it?"
      Internal urapatriots irritate even more than ukrofascists - no discussion, continuous maintenance of master's pants. And who will be responsible for all the failures during the JWO? Pushkin A.S.? And now the dam in Kakhovka has been "nullified" - would it be like that if they didn't leave Kherson? I can imagine how the locals curse, there, all Muscovites! Was it possible the bombing of the Belgorod region, if they did not run away from the Kharkov region? And who started the NWO with a fool, relying on experience in Kazakhstan? (although they did it there, they put Tokaev, a copy of Pashenyan, a friend of America, now we are waiting for nasty things from both). And why didn't they "leave their own" in 2014, when people on the outskirts stood with posters - "Come in the Russian army"? - how many then died during the 8 years of the genocide, while they were waiting for help from Russia? Who is guilty ? Pushkin A.S.?
      There is no need to drive away the authorities - this only plays into the hands of the enemies, but we need to go out and talk about problems - at least remove the lunar bliss from the faces of our main leaders and hedgehogs with them. Things are going to a vigorous loaf, it’s already clear to everyone - that’s not to hell with sycophancy, gentlemen, comrades. No.

    The funniest thing is if, after its construction, the EU will legally prohibit buying gas from it. Build, invest, and then...

      Europe will limit the supply of Russian gas if there are also supplies from Azerbaijan and Qatar.
      I think this is clear to many. But the annual growth in gas consumption will increase gas supplies, and only Russia can provide this. It turns out a complex multi-move, in which you can win and lose, the risk is very high.

    Immediately lay a pneumatic pipe through the sowing pole to the United States and drive bundles of money there with tubes.
    There are abandoned areas in the center of Russia and Siberia.
    Allegedly, it is better and cheaper to live and support the electorate in cities with a population of over a million.
    But their people need something else - the expanses of their vast country. Without kurshavel.
    If the people are their own, and not local

    And what additional income, according to economists, can this bring to Russia?

      Can bring. Or maybe not bring. Did SP-2 bring us much? Nothing but problems. They blew up this pipe, and that's it. And how much dough was swelled into it.

        After the earthquake, the Turks really need money and these 30-35 billion dollars will not be superfluous at all. They will guard the pipe like their mother.

    Turks and nuclear power plants in Akkuyu, and grain deals, and gas hubs with gas pipelines, and money for tomatoes with tourists.
    And for all these deals, valued at tens of billions in profits for the Turks, the Turkish government and Turkish companies ... can the Russian government ask for a little request not to supply Turkish weapons to Ukraine? (both directly and through third countries)
    Are there any bayraktars, Kipri ​​armored personnel carriers, TRG-230, etc.?
    Or is it too much to ask? Or does the Russian government not care that these weapons will be used to kill Russian citizens?

    Yes, who would have doubted. People are dying on both sides, and the "Rublev-Istanbul-banking" people are doing their own selfish business. With honest eyes.

    Bablo conquers everything.
    The grain deal will be closed after the construction of Akkuyu and the gas hub.

    Not a gas hub, but VO is surprisingly silent. On June 5, Khakhly blew up a section of an ammonia pipeline in the territory of the Kharkov region - RF Ministry of Defense.
    Restoration will take from 1 to 3 months with access to the facility - Russian Foreign Ministry. As they say who about what ...

      The Khakhlovs even have losses there, from the released ammonia, one 200 and several 300. And it's time to ship the ammonia in the Krasnodar Territory. They are building a new plant there.

    Why do we need it? The gas hub is an internal affair of Turkey, why invest Russia's money there? Moreover, practice has shown that Europe easily, without batting an eyelid, takes away someone else's property and it doesn't matter in which country of Europe it is located! And here, they will dump Erdogan and cry money ... This is a waste of money. It is necessary to concentrate on the construction of a megaport near the Crimean bridge. There is already construction going on, but very slowly. It must be understood that trade through pipelines has sunk into oblivion.

    The Turkish path has less risk than the Ukraine/Poland path. Erdogan is in power for the next 5 years, so gas can be pushed through Turkey for another 5 years without serious risks. Plus, gas from other Turkic countries and Qatar began to flow to Europe through Turkey. There must be competition, competition through existing pipelines is risky.
