/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The leaders of Iran, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan,
Turkey and Qatar come together today to discuss implementation of
Nabucco project.
Earlier this month, the Iranian and Turkmen governments had signed an
agreement to allow Iran to develop the Yolotan gas field in
Turkmenistan. With this deal, Iran will buy an additional 350 billion
cubic feet of gas annually.
Besides, Iran offers its gasfield as main resource for Nabucco
pipeline.
According to Kommersant daily, Turkey's position is one of the major
obstacles for the project implementation.
`The matter is that Turkey doesn't want to be just a transition
country. It wants to purchase incoming gas at its eastern borders and
sell it at the western ones, imitating Gazprom's policy,' the article
says.
