Russia/Ukraine/PipelineBack
[Published: Tuesday September 28 2021]
Russia bypasses Ukraine to ship EU gas via Turkey
 
MOSCOW, 28 Sept. - (ANA) - Hungary has told Ukraine to stay out of its gas contracts, after Budapest made a 15-year deal to take more volumes via Russia's new Turkey pipeline, called Turkstream, which bypasses Ukraine. 
 
"Energy safety is a matter of [national] security," Hungarian foreign minister Péter Szijjártó said. 
 
The Russian deal was a "purely political, economically unreasonable decision", Ukraine's foreign ministry said. Russia recently completed another pipeline, Nord Stream 2, also bypassing Ukraine.  - (ANA) -
