The European Union welcomes Azerbaijan-Turkey agreement on gas transportation, said EU Energy Commissioner Guenther Oettinger.
"Turkey and Azerbaijan are our indispensable partners for the realization of the Southern Corridor. This agreement between such two important partners opens the way for a strategic allocation of gas that will underpin the Southern Corridor and provide energy security to Turkey and the EU.

Just as importantly, a strategic allocation will mean, that Azerbaijan cements itself as a leading partner to the EU in the Caucasus and Caspian regions." Turkish minister of energy and natural resources Taner Yildiz said last week that they reached agreement with Azerbaijan on gas transportation.
