The “Turkish stream” of the Russian and Turkish leaders launched in January 2020. Through his second thread, gas will be supplied to Europe through Bulgaria, Serbia and Hungary
Serbia launched Russian gas from the Turkish Stream into the country
Serbia President Alexander Vuchich on the morning of January 1 officially launched the launch of Russian gas through the Balkan Stream pipeline in the country's gas distribution system. This was reported by the publication Srbija Danas.
The Balkan Stream is a continuation of the Turkish Stream gas pipeline, which allows you to transport fuel from Bulgaria through Serbia to Hungary. At about 6:00 local time (8:00 Moscow time), Vucich in the village of Lords under Novi-Sad launched a gas pipeline.
According to him, the country became “much richer” after connecting gas. Serbia will receive revenues from consumers in the Balkans for the transit of fuel in its territory. In addition, the launch of the Balkan Stream will reduce the cost of connecting gas inside the country.
“Thanks to this, we provide an influx of investors in different regions of Serbia,” Vucic said and thanked for the excellent work of all who built the pipe, as well as Russian President Vladimir Putin.
The Russian Ambassador to Serbia Alexander Botsan-Kharchenko called the opening of the pipeline the best gift for the New Year.
In the fall of 2020, Platts reported that the input of the Serbian section of the North Stream could be postponed until the spring of 2021, since Serbia is behind the construction schedule. A possible delay in Belgrade was associated with the construction of the compressor station.
