Georgia has resumed Russian natural gas transit to Armenia via a
reserve pipeline, a spokesman for the Georgian International Oil and
Gas Corporation said Tuesday.
Gas transit was suspended on August 20 due to planned repairs along
the Georgian stretch of the North Caucasus – Trans-Caucasus pipeline.
The repairs are continuing, but this is not hindering Russian gas
transit to Armenia, the spokesman said.
The repairs are expected to last approximately a week, the Georgian
International Oil and Gas Corporation said Monday.
