Vestnik Kavkaza: We support South Stream project, but for us Nabucco project is priority - Romanian president

"We support the version of the South Stream project that is supported by the EU. And we are a part of the EU. Thus, for us the Nabucco project is a priority," the President of Romania, Traian Basescu, told the Voice of Russia in an exclusive interview.

"We are taking part in that project; Romania owns 16% of the project. But we will never be against the South Stream project. And when we received an offer from Russia to make the first exploration tests in Romania’s economic zone, our answer was positive," the president said.  MORE
