Before that, after the visit to Turkey by Russian President Vladimir Putin has passed at least a couple of weeks, Ankara hurried to bring unpleasant surprise to the Russian authorities. Turkish Energy Minister Taner Yildiz told reporters that Ankara currently has no plans to take part in the South stream gas pipeline, intended to participate in the Nabucco pipeline projects West and where the TANAP is a shareholder, agency Salam News.
Sources say the Yildiz stated this on the sidelines of the event, dedicated to the start of construction of the South stream gas pipeline. Media Note that the project "South stream" single-mindedly and consistently supported and promoted by senior management and the Russian Government. And during the visit of Vladimir Putin, the issue also was paid a lot of attention. Turkey had previously repeatedly (since 2009) gave the go-ahead on exploration and other work in its black sea waters for the benefit of the project, in May 2010, has expressed willingness to participate in a project with certain conditions, and gave permission to December 29, 2011 construction and operation of South stream gas pipeline in its exclusive economic zone.
It is noteworthy that Ankara's denial message to join the South stream spread on the day when the Russian President in the presence of other dignitaries (including from Europe: General Manager of Eni (Italy), Paolo Scaroni, Chief Executive Officer of EDF (France) Henri Proglio, Chairman of the Board of Wintershall Holding GmbH (Germany), Rainer Seele, Chief Executive Officer of South Stream Transport (Germany) Marcel Kramer, General Director of Serbiagaz (Serbia) Dušan BaâtovičCEO Plinovodi d.o.o (Slovenia), Marjan Èberlinc, CEO of MVM (Hungary) Csaba Bailly and Executive Director of the Bulgarian energy holding EAD (Bulgaria) Mikhail Andonov) on a platform of Russian compressor station near Anapa (Krasnodar territory) in the ceremony started the construction of the South stream gas pipeline, the welding of the symbolic joint gas transportation systems in Russia and Europe.
