"We've learned South Stream lesson, now there's condition"

"However, given the sad lessons associated with South Stream - firm legal guarantees of the European Commission are definitely needed," he added.

"Gazprom last year had record gas deliveries to the European market. The realization of large infrastructure projects continues, including Nord Stream 2, which should, through the shortest and cheapest route, diversify gas supplies to European consumers," said Lavrov.

The first line of the TurkStream gas pipeline is intended for gas deliveries to the Turkish market, and the second is for the countries of South and Southeast Europe. The capacity of each line is 15.75 billion cubic meters of gas annually.
