Ilham Aliyev: Today 10 European Union member states receive natural gas from Azerbaijan

Natural gas has been in demand throughout the last several years, and over the past couple of months - even more so. We plan to increase production and, of course, ramp up exports. Today, ten member states of the European Union receive natural gas from Azerbaijan. In total, there are sixteen such countries. And by this indicator, we rank first in the world.

As reported by AZERTAC, this was stated by President Ilham Aliyev in his speech at the Azerbaijan-Latvia business forum held on April 22 in Baku.

"We are not the largest producer and exporter, there are much bigger players. But among countries exporting pipeline gas, in terms of the geography of supplies, we rank first," the President of Azerbaijan added.
