Nabucco main construction to be held regardless of Karabakh conflict
settlement: Azeri expert
17:03 / 05/01/2010Nabucco main construction will be held no matter the
disputes over Nagorno-Karabakh will be settled or not, Director of the
Centre for Strategic Studies under the Azerbaijani President Elhan
Nuriyev told Deutsche Welle.
He emphasized that the project is not a political deal, but an
economic initiative, thus there is no obstacle to Russia’s
participation in it. `This transnational project should not be taken
as an anti-Russian move,’ the expert stressed.
Nuriyev also deems that the project is not Azerbaijanian or European.
`Through Nabucco Azerbaijan will make a significant contribution to
the solution of Europe’s energy security issue and assist EU in
diversification of its energy policy,’ he concluded.
