In the future Armenia may become a corridor for pipelines.
The due opinion was voiced by EU special envoy on Central Asian
countries Pierre Morel meeting Turkish journalists on February 19.
He said the opening of the Armenian-Turkish border will have a positive
influence on the energy sphere of both countries.
There are many options for a new Caspian-Turkish pipeline that has a
mobile and varying energy landscape. In this sense, Morel said that
Armenia could also have become a route for future pipelines. He
noted that there is no exact route for possible new pipeline. "I
think the main idea is to use Armenia as an area for conduction of
future pipelines", Morel said.
He said the Caucasus must be used for transportation of energy sources,
as the "South Caucasus is a wider concept compared to Nabucco".
"Corridor is not one pipeline, it is a system of pipelines. And only
in presence of a group of pipelines will it be possible to speak of
the southern corridor", Pierre Morel said.
