Netherlands supports EU's willingness to boost gas supplies from Azerbaijan - ambassador

The Netherlands supports the EU's desire to boost gas supplies from Azerbaijan, Ambassador of the Netherlands Pauline Eiseman told Trend.

"The dependence of the Netherlands on gas supplies from Russia is low, so the current supply crisis won't be very significant," Eiseman said.

The ambassador added that the Netherlands, in line with EU policy, also supports the desire to increase imports of energy sources from Azerbaijan.

The supply of Azerbaijani gas to Europe through the Southern Gas Corridor began on December 31, 2020. Azerbaijan exported its natural gas to the European market through pipelines for the first time in history.
