Zitat:Turkmenistan pledges gas for EU's Nabucco pipelineLink: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11797792">http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11797792</a><!-- m -->
Turkmenistan has pledged to supply natural gas for the planned Nabucco pipeline - a major project that should allow EU countries to rely less on Russian energy in future.
Turkmenistan says it will have up to 40bn cubic metres (1,412bn cu ft) of spare gas annually, "so European countries need not worry".
The pledge came from Turkmen Deputy PM Baymyrad Hojamuhamedov on Friday. Uncertainty about Nabucco's gas supply has been delaying the project. The 3,300km (2,046-mile) pipeline is expected to pump up to 31bn cubic metres of gas annually from the Caspian region and Middle East across Turkey and into Europe.
