Russia may triple gas supplies to Denmark by the Nord Stream pipeline and amount them to three billion cubic metres a year, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said.
Summing up the results of the talks with Danish Prime Minister Lars Loekke Rasmussen on Monday, Putin said: “This project will allow us to ensure additional energy supplies not only to our consumers in Europe but also to supply one billion cubic metres of energy carriers to Denmark every year. In the future they may be tripled.”
The Russian prime minister thanked Denmark for it to approve a draft on laying the pipeline through its territory. Putin hopes that other countries will take a pragmatic position.
Putin stressed that Nord Stream was not an alternative route, but an additional route of energy supplies to Europe.
Russia will support Denmark’s proposal for a global “post-Kyoto agreement”, Russian Prime Minister said after the meeting with Lars Loekke Rasmussen. “We will support Rasmussen’s idea that a binding political document should be concluded on the basis of the Copenhagen meeting,” he said. “Yes, we are ready to do this,” he said.
“There will be the need to ensure from our positions the solution of two problems,” Putin said. “The first one is of a global nature and is that all countries, particularly those that make the biggest discharges, I mean the world’s biggest economies, should sign the document, or else this will be meaningless,” he said. “All without exception,” the Russian premier stressed.
