GERMANY WILLING TO ITS REDUCE ENERGY DEPENDENCE ON RUSSIA WITH HELP OF AFRICA  Germany intends to import a gas from Algeria in order to reduce its dependence from the supply of hydrocarbon from Russia, the international analysts interviewed by TrendCapital said.
Last week, during his first official visit to Algeria the German chancellor Angela Merkel expressed Germany’s wish to enhance cooperation with the North African state in the sphere of gas. Merkel said during the meeting with President of Algeria Abdelaziz Bouteflika that his state is the third largest gas supplier to Europe; however Germany does not purchase Algerian gas. The national oil and gas company of Algeria Sonatrach is one of the large gas suppliers to Europe.
According to the German political expert and director of Russia and CIS program of the Foreign Policy Council of Germany Alexander Rar, Germany is looking for an alternative for the Russian gas. |
