NABUCCO and Turkish, Azeri and Armenian relations
By Messenger Staff Friday, March 26
The Turkish Ministry of Energy and Natural Resources is expressing its
concern about the NABUCCO gas pipeline project, saying that the Azeri
side has not responded sufficiently to enable the project to be
implemented.
Of course the Azeri side is vitally interested in resolving the issues
of the Armenian-occupied territories and Karabakh, but Baku does not
know whether Turkey will proceed with opening its borders with
Armenia, therefore it is delaying making a final decision on its
involvement in the NABUCCO project.
Negotiations are underway between Turkey and Azerbaijan about the
latter supplying gas to NABUCCO but everything depends on the further
developments of the relations between Armenia and Turkey. New steps in
this direction are expected by the end of April, on the anniversary of
the humanitarian catastrophe which Yerevan wants the world to call the
Armenian genocide. Meanwhile Azerbaijan is in standby mode.
