Gas Supply to Armenia and Georgia Can be Resumed January 28
Today Kavkaztransgaz Director General Vasiliy Zinovyev stated that the gas pumping to Armenia and Georgia can be resumed January 28. In his words, the repair works at the gas pipeline that exploded January 22 entered the final stage. "We plan to resume the gas supply on Saturday," he said, Interfax reported.
To remind, explosions at the gas pipeline in North Ossetia occurred on Sunday night. Explosive devices detonated on main and reserve branches of the North Caucasus-Transcaucasus pipeline, one in twenty minutes after another. The explosions were equivalent of 700-800 g of TNT. The Russian Prosecution regards it as a diversion. Georgia receives Russian gas through transit via Azerbaijan, where Gazprom increased the amount of gas supplies, and Armenia uses gas from the Abovyan underground gas reservoir
