Slovakia considers 10-year deal to replace Russian gas with Azerbaijani supplies

Slovakia is discussing a contract of at least 10 years to replace Russian gas with Azerbaijani supplies, Slovak Deputy Prime Minister Tomas Taraba said.

“The only question is how to deliver energy resources to Central Europe,” he said.

Slovakia has said it is looking for new suppliers capable of providing the required gas volumes at reasonable prices after the EU’s decision to phase out Russian natural gas imports.
