ANKARA (AA) - The US would not support any pipeline project in the Eastern Mediterranean, the country’s undersecretary of state said on Thursday.
“We don’t need to wait for 10 years and spend billions of dollars on this stuff. We need to move the gas now,” Victoria Nuland told the Greek daily Kathimerini.
“So we’ve got to use LNG and we’ve got to use electricity connections that we can do more quickly,” she told the daily, and called for the transfer of natural gas from Eastern Mediterranean to Europe via LNG and the participation of Turkiye in cooperation with Greece, Israel, Egypt and Cyprus in a wider context, according to the Greek news outlet.
