Trend: LNG supplies from U.S. to Europe not to affect export of Azerbaijani gas
Liquefied gas supplies from the U.S. to Europe will not affect the export of Azerbaijani gas to the European market, U.S. ambassador to Azerbaijan Richard Morningstar told journalists in Baku on April 23.
"We are considering the issue of liquefied gas supplies from the U.S. to Europe," the high-ranking diplomat said. "This will have no effect on gas exports from Azerbaijan."
"The gas supplies to Europe from various sources will ensure the reliability of its fuel supply," he said.
The Southern Gas Corridor is a project which will allow Europe to diversify its sources for hydrocarbon supplies, increase energy security and allow Azerbaijan to obtain a new market represented by Europe.
