(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) ISTANBUL, Jan 30 (KUNA) -- Turkey will hold a natural gas summit on Feb. 14-15 to bring together gas supplier countries and Europe's consumers in Istanbul, Turkish Energy Minister Fatih Donmez said Monday.
'We will bring together supplier countries from the Middle East, Mediterranean, Caspian, and Middle Asia with consumer countries from Europe,' Donmez added.
Russia's President Vladimir Putin proposed setting up a gas hub in Turkey following explosions that damaged Russia's Nord Stream gas pipelines under the Baltic Sea.
Both Turkish and Russian Presidents ordered earlier a detailed study about establishing a gas hub in Turkey in order to divert gas from the damaged North stream to consumers. (end)
