Igor Grosu: The Republic of Moldova could buy natural gas from Turkey
The Republic of Moldova could buy natural gas from Turkey, announced the Parliament Speaker Igor Grosu, on a show on realitatea.md. According to the official, in the context of Turkey's exploitation of a giant source of gas in the Black Sea, it could provide our country with the necessary amount.
"Turkey becomes an important player in the energy market. In addition to having a gas transportation network from Central Asia to the Balkans and Europe, they recently announced deposits of about 710 billion cubic meters of natural gas in the Black Sea, after which they intend to explore them to build a hub for Turkey from where it will supply its own gas and gas transited to European Union countries. We also discussed the prospects of doing this in relation to the Republic of Moldova", declared Igor Grosu. We remind you that today the Republic of Moldova is supplied with natural gas stocked in Ukraine and Romania. The entire amount of natural gas of 5.7 million cubic meters of natural gas intended for the Republic of Moldova is directed to the Transnistrian region in exchange for the procurement of electricity from the Cuciurgan Power Plant.
