Baku / 06.03.18 / Turan: To ensure gas supplies from Azerbaijan, the German government intends to provide a loan guarantee for a large loan of the Azerbaijani state enterprise (SOCAR) in a German bank.
This was announced on Tuesday, March 6, by the dpa agency with reference to a letter from the representative of the German Ministry of Finance, Jens Spahn, which he sent to the budget committee of the Bundestag.
The loan amount is 1.5 billion dollars (1.2 billion euros). "These gas supplies should make a significant contribution to providing gas supply to Europe and Germany," dpa quoted Spahn's letter.
