With the commissioning of the interconnector with Greece, Bulgaria will be able to receive natural gas from Azerbaijan in full volumes, Azerbaijan’s ambassador to Bulgaria Huseyn Huseynov said in an interview for the Azeri news outlet Trend News Agency.

He quoted a statement made by Bulgarian Prime Minister Kiril Petkov that the facility will start functioning in July or August this year at the latest. “Azerbaijan, as a reliable energy supplier and initiator of a number of important regional projects, will continue to fully implement its obligations and play a crucial role in Bulgaria’s energy market,” the Ambassador said.
