MOSCOW. Aug 20 (Interfax) – Russian gas concern Gazprom (RTS: GAZP)
is to restore gas supplies to Georgia and Armenia soon, which were
temporarily halted on Monday morning due to scheduled repairs,
a source in the company told Interfax.
"Due to scheduled repairs in preparation for the fall-winter period
of operations on the Georgian section of the North Caucasus – Trans-
Caucasus gas pipeline, gas supplies to Armenia and Georgia have been
temporarily halted from 10:00 Moscow time on August 20," Gazprom said.
