Putin says Azerbaijani gas is not enough to meet Nabucco's needs
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, who is on a visit to Turkey to participate in the high-level summit on interaction and confidence building measures in Asia, said Tuesday that natural gas from Azerbaijan's Shah Deniz field is not enough to meet the planned Nabucco pipeline's needs.
Putin was speaking at a press conference with his Turkish counterpart Tayyip Erdogan one day after Turkey and Azerbaijan signed a memorandum of understanding that will allow Baku to export gas to Europe.
