Turkey will continue getting gas from Russia via "Blue Stream" pipeline, Turkish Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Taner Yildiz was quoted by Turkish newspaper "Zaman" as saying.

He said that the Turkish side intends to discuss the issue of gas supplies through this pipeline during his visit to Russia (date of the visit is not specified).

"Perhaps, the Turkish private sector will be interested in buying Russian gas through the Blue Stream," he said. There will be no problems in this issue."

Botas informed Russian Gazprom in October 2011 that it will prolong one of the agreements to supply Russian gas. The Turkish company's letter said that this happened due to the fact that the agreement on the proportions of the desired discount was not reached.
