BAKU, Azerbaijan, December 29. Supplies of
Russian natural gas to Uzbekistan increased by 20% in 2025, Gazprom
CEO Alexey Miller said during a year-end meeting at the Lakhta
Center in St. Petersburg, Trend reports via Gazprom.


Miller noted that the company’s agenda currently focuses on the
further expansion of gas supplies in this direction.


"Central Asia has its own resource base, but the high pace of
economic development in the region requires increasingly larger
volumes of energy," he said.







According to Miller, Gazprom clearly understands that in the
medium term, Russian gas will be in very strong demand in Central
Asia.


Meanwhile, in 2024, Gazprom delivered 5.64 billion cubic meters
of natural gas to Uzbekistan—a 4.4-fold increase from 2023, when
exports totaled just 1.28 billion cubic meters.
