Presidents Iohannis, Radev discuss speedy commissioning of Bulgaria – Greece interconnector

-

The Presidents of Romania and Bulgaria Klaus Iohannis and Rumen Radev discussed on Tuesday the diversification of energy sources and transport routes amid efforts to reduce energy reliance on the Russian Federation.

„With the mounting need to reduce energy reliance on the Russian Federation, we discussed the diversification of energy sources and transport routes. We also emphasized the importance of the speedy commissioning of the Bulgaria-Greece interconnector. Once completed, this can be connected to the already operational BRUA pipeline for the key important Vertical Gas Corridor to become operational,” President Iohannis told a joint press conference delivered with his Bulgarian counterpart at the Cotroceni Palace.

Klaus Iohannis brought to mind that he had also discussed the matter with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, and there are promises for the interconnector to be switched on by the end of this year.

„And then we can benefit via Bulgaria from liquefied natural gas that will be unloaded off the Greek port [of Alexandroupolis]. On the other hand, work is underway on other alternative gas supply routes and we are in advanced negotiations with several sources. It is obvious that by the beginning of the winter of 2022 – 2023 we must have viable gas supply alternatives in place,” Iohannis added.
