Day.Az has received a letter from a reader, which says that the
biggest gas company Gazprom helps restore the gas supply to Nagorno
Karabakh de-facto.
According to it, the link on the map is posted on the official website
of ArmRosgazprom in the section GAS-TRANSPORTATION MAP of Armenia.
By following this link we can see a gas transportation map of Armenia,
which fixes that ArmRosgazprom is engaged in ensuring gas supplies
of Nagorno Karabakh.
It should be noted that the Armenian-Russian closed stock company
ArmRosgazprom was created by the Energy Ministry of Armenia, Gazprom,
ITERA International Energy L.L.C (ITERA) on the basis of an agreement
of August 30 of 1997. The society was founded for the term of 50
years. The term of the activity can be prolonged by the mutual consent
of the shareholders.
Gazprom has the biggest share in the founding capital of
ArmRosgazprom. It owns 67.94% of the founding capital, Armenian
government holds 26.23% and ITERA 5.83%.
In other words it can be stated that company ArmRosgazprom is in fact
owned by Gazprom and Gazprom, violating all international norms,
promotes the development of the gas sector of Nagorno Karabakh,
considering that Nagorno Karabakh belongs to Armenia.
Gazprom is notably the biggest gas company in the world. The government
of Russia owns the control shares in Gazprom - 50.002%.
Another notable fact is that on July 3 of this year Russia and
Azerbaijan agreed to initiate talks on provisions of the purchase of
Azerbaijani gas by Russia.
"Azerbaijan will become another country to sell gas to Gazprom, while
earlier it was Azerbaijan which bought gas from us", said Gazprom
President Alexei Miller, adding that Gazprom is ready to cooperate
with Azerbaijan.
How can we sell Azerbaijani gas to Russia, when the government of
Russia provides de-facto assistance to the restoration of the gas
supplies in Nagorno Karabakh? Who can guarantee that Azerbaijani gas
will not go to Nagorno Karabakh via Armenia? How can we trust to
this gas structure, which fully ignores the territorial integrity
of Azerbaijan? Or, perhaps, Gazprom, in fact owning ArmRusgazprom,
forgot that Nagorno Karabakh belongs to Azerbaijan?
In this sense, we call on the Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan, the
Cabinet of Ministers, Azerigaz and certainly the Azerbaijani embassy to
Russia, which demonstrates quick reaction to such issues, to interfere
with this problem and give an adequate response to Gazprom for this
issue is seriously bound to the strategic interests of our country.
