SZIJJÁRTÓ HOLDS TALKS WITH SERBIAN MINISTER OF ENERGY, MINING

Péter Szijjártó, Hungary’s minister of foreign affairs and trade, held talks with Serbia’s minister of energy and mining Aleksandar Antić on investment projects required for the delivery of Russian gas to eastern Europe through the Turkish Stream gas pipeline, the ministry said. Szijjártó stressed Hungary’s vested interest in diversifying gas supply sources and routes and its close cooperation with Serbia and Bulgaria to this effect. Russian energy giant Gazprom announced earlier that both branches of Turkish Stream would reach the Turkish coasts by late 2019.
