Russia urged Bulgaria to speed up decisions to allow the countries to start building an oil pipeline bypassing Turkey’s Bosporus strait and a nuclear power plant on the Danube River.
“We didn’t discuss concrete timelines, but we should head into the homestretch and we expect final decisions on the fate of the project soon,” Russian Energy Minister Sergei Shmatko told reporters in Moscow late yesterday after meeting with his Bulgarian counterpart Traicho Traikov.
