After 2019 it will not be possible for "Gazprom" to completely eliminate the Ukraine from the Russian gas supply scheme, even if the "Turkish Stream" project will be built, according to the experts, with reference to RBK.
The newspaper reminds that due to construction of "Turkish Stream" gas pipeline in 2019 when the current contract with the Ukrainian side ends, Gazprom is going to completely stop the transit of gas through the Ukraine. But the concern will not have time to prepare for this within the last four and a half years, the experts interviewed by the publication believe.
