“At the moment, our energy supplies are safe, taking into account the fact that the Turkish Stream can supply us with gas, so we do not need transit through Ukraine to secure supplies,” the minister told RIA Novosti on the sidelines of a diplomatic forum in Antalya.

Siyato added that “the more sources, the better.”

“Therefore, we are open to discussion,” he concluded.

On February 28, the representative of the European Commission, Tim McPhee, said that the EC is intensively working on a complete rejection of Russian gas supplies through the territory of Ukraine.
