Mubariz Gurbanli: The main thing for our country in the approach to Nabucco project is the guarantee of our interests

“Azerbaijan participates in the international projects within its interests. Up to now our national interests have been protected in the international and regional projects on the highest level. In this respect, the main thing for our country in the approach to Nabucco project is the guarantee of our interests,” deputy executive secretary of the ruling New Azerbaijan Party (NAP), parliamentarian Mubariz Gurbanli said in his interview to the NAP’s website, APA reports.

Commenting on the foreign analysts’ views about the importance of Azerbaijan’s participation in the Nabucco project, Mubariz Gurbanli noted that Azerbaijan is exporting its energy resources and there is no problem in this issue. According to him, Azerbaijan will continue to participate in the projects corresponding to its economic interests.

“Azerbaijan has oil and gas resources and in this respect there is a great interest in our country on the international level. We are playing the role of a bridge uniting the east and the west. Azerbaijan is exporting its oil and gas through various pipelines. Our country faces no problem in delivering its oil and gas to the world market. Those who have put forward the idea of Nabucco should first of all realize this idea through constructing this pipeline. Azerbaijan is selling its gas and has no problem of export. It is not engaged in the idea of constructing a new gas pipeline. Gas buyers should deal with this issue,” he said.
