Georgia has assured the Armenian government that the possible sale of
25% of shares of North-South gas pipeline, via which Russian gas is
supplied to Armenia, will not anyhow affect the "general management
of the gas pipeline."
Armenian Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Armen Movsisyan
said in the Armenian parliament that if a part of Armenia-bound gas
pipeline is purchased by a foreign company, including Azerbaijani one,
it will not affect the gas pipeline exploitation matters.
"In our opinion, the sale of 25% of the gas pipeline's shares does
not pose a threat for Armenia," the Minister said.
Even if an Azerbaijani company buys 25% of the gas pipeline's shares,
Azerbaijan will not be able to blackmail Armenia with it, concluded
Movsisyan.
