DAVOS, Switzerland, January 21. Last year, we
exported more than 25 billion cubic meters of natural gas. Almost
13 billion was exported to Europe, and this number will grow, said
President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev as he responded to questions
from business representatives from various countries during an
event titled “Azerbaijan Executive Breakfast,” held as part of the
annual meeting of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Trend's special correspondent reports.
“It was done based on a request from the European Commission.
After the Russian-Ukrainian war started, the President of the
European Commission came to Baku, and we signed a document on
strategic partnership in the energy sector. We agreed that we would
double our gas supply to Europe from the existing level at that
time—almost 8 to 16 BCM. So in some three years plus, we have
already almost reached 13, and the number will grow,” President
Ilham Aliyev emphasized.
