"We have largely resolved the issues of gas supply. Today, gas supply in our country has reached 96 percent," President of the Republic of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev said at a meeting dedicated to the State Program for the improvement of water supply, wastewater, and stormwater systems in Baku and the Absheron Peninsula for 2026–2035, APA reports.
"By this, I mean the population, not settlements. Today, 96 percent of the population is supplied with natural gas. This is an issue that occupies a special place among the infrastructure projects we have carried out over the past 20 years. In the past, our gas supply was not sufficient to meet domestic demand. We also imported gas from abroad and faced great difficulties. Today, more than 10 countries in the world — and the number of these countries is increasing every year, with new countries to be added to this list this year — are purchasing Azerbaijani natural gas and enhancing their energy security," the President noted.
