Azerbaijan may increase gas supplies to Syria

Azerbaijan may increase gas supplies to Syria, President Ilham Aliyev said in an interview with Al Arabiya TV channel, Report informs via AZERTAC.

"We had a trilateral and even quadrilateral arrangement between Azerbaijan, Syria, Türkiye, and Qatar, in order to help Syria with natural gas for conversion into electricity. So the ceremony marking the start of that process took place on the second of August. Azerbaijani gas, through Türkiye, is coming to Syria, and the Qatari government was so generous as to provide funds for that. So far, we have agreed on about 1.2 billion cubic meters of natural gas to Syria, but their demands are higher. So in the future, we can increase the volume of gas so that they experience fewer shortages," Ilham Aliyev said.
