According to the newspaper, the company’s internal documents state that the gas pipeline should be stopped on September 17. Because of this, Serbia and Hungary could be left without Russian gas.
On September 14, Oleg Aksyutin, the executive director of South Stream Transport, allegedly sent a letter to the heads of the company’s structural divisions, in which he ordered the suspension of all contracts related to the technical support of gas pipeline.
Gas transportation should continue with only emergency support provided to avoid any damage to the environment.
South Stream Transport BV has reportedly applied for a new license but it is not known if it will get one.
“In effect, the company has lost operational control over the pipeline,” the source said.
Radio Liberty also claims that the Turkish side is not aware of this situation.
It should be noted that this became known against the backdrop of an emergency in the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea.
