Russias gas monopoly Gazprom is prepared to take part in a pipeline project to link Irans reserves to the growing Indian market
Russia?s gas monopoly Gazprom is prepared to take part in a pipeline project to link Iran?s reserves to the growing Indian market, Russian news agencies quoted President Vladimir Putin as saying on Thursday.
Putin said state-controlled Gazprom?s role could include attracting finance for the gas pipeline, which would pass through Pakistan. The project has been under discussion for over a decade but progress has been slow, the Reuters news agency reported.
?Gazprom is ready to participate, including in terms of financing, in implementing this project, especially as a project like this can pay for itself,? the Itar-Tass news agency quoted Putin as saying in Shanghai.
