PUTIN SAYS OIL PIPELINE COULD RUN ALONGSIDE PLANNED NEW GAS LINK TO CHINA

NEWS Desk Global



Russia could deliver oil as well as gas to China along a planned route via Mongolia, President Vladimir Putin said on Friday. Putin, wrapping up a two-day visit to China, said he and his hosts had confirmed their interest in moving forward with the proposed gas pipeline, the Power of Siberia 2.

"Moreover, it's possible to lay both a gas pipeline and an oil pipeline in the same corridor," Putin said, appearing to revive an idea that was discussed as far back as 2018.

However, he said there were also other options for supplying Russian energy to China including by tanker along the Northern Sea Route via the Arctic.
