DREAMBOAT IN TURKISH LAID IN SEA DEPTHS
DREAMBOAT IN TURKISH LAID IN SEA DEPTHS
THE PIPELINE CAN BECOME THE LIFESAVER FOR OUR SOUTHERN
NEIGHBOURS.
VASILY SHCHUROV.
Recently the union of businessmen of Turkey has invited representatives
The business press from the different countries on the congress where ways were discussed
Overcomings of an economic crisis and development of the international
Trade.
Because of shocks in the world financial markets and "the Kurdish
Question "the economy of this country dynamically developing from the end
80th years, today has hard times. An exit the Turkish
The authorities search in upgrade of the industry and expansion
Cooperation - first of all.
With members of EU, and also Russia. Among the perspective
The international projects, capable to provide break.
In economy, "the Blue stream" is allocated Russian-Turkish -
Downloading of natural gas on the pipelines laid in depth
Black sea.
In Ankara we spoke about it with torgpredom the Russian Federation in Turkey Victor
THE KOPTEVSKY.
- Victor Nikolaevich, a last year's collapse of our rouble strongly
Has struck on our neighbours. And how then "the Blue stream"? Not
Whether threatens it the unique project?
- On the contrary, interest to growth of deliveries of the Russian gas has increased.
Because it is easier to meet crisis, having the effective
The industry. And a key to economy upgrade - access to
To energy carriers and raw materials for development of perspective branches, in
That number of petrochemistry. Therefore the Turkish government has developed
The perspective program which "is fastened" on the Russian gas.
It is a question of transfer into gas old and building new thermal
Power stations, erection on all country of the chemical enterprises,
Growth of consumption of gas on the household purposes - gas boiler-houses instead of
Heating by coal, gas cookers instead of expensive electric stoves:
- Leaves, that today's deliveries of hydrocarbonic raw materials and
Scales of gasification a Turk do not arrange?
- To Turkey we now deliver gas on the western way - through
Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria - about seven billions cubic metre.
There are at them small deposits, deliver tankers
szhizhennyj gas from Algeria and Sudan - in general, turns out, that in a year
It is consumed about 12 billion cubes. Such volumes while
Correspond to requirements. But after all if to stand on a place, you
Competitors will very soon push aside. They are Turks fine understand - and
Try to make break at the expense of energy carriers and technological
Revolutions.
- Before recent time tourism - for was the most dynamical branch
10-15 years in "Turkish Riviera" the rest industry, the country is created
Has gone through tourist boom. And now we see thin hotels:
- Some governments under the decision even are preserved.
The reason is known - Kurdish extremists threaten to revenge for court
Over Ocalan. It competitors have not failed to use on
The tourism market - the press rastirazhirovala these threats, has warmed up
Passions. And though here, thanks God, real danger yet
It is felt, many zapadnoev-ropejskie tourists were pulled on rest
In other edges. In it, I believe, too one of the splash reasons
Public and state interest to "the Blue stream". And
Turks at themselves finance building of compressor stations in
Prime order, nesmotrja on any difficulties.
- As far as I know, recently on these purposes the Turkish
The government has decided to allocate 16 billion dollars. And that in
To prospect will bring to neighbours "the Blue stream"?
- According to the project, by 2007 through two threads of the underwater
The pipeline it will be possible to pump over to 16 billion cubic metre
Natural gas. It is simultaneously planned to increase twice
Gas deliveries through the western pipeline. Then Turkey
Becomes the second after Germany - and can be, and the first -
The exporter of the Russian gas. The requirement for him by the end
The first decade of the XXI-st century they estimate in 40-50 million
Cubes, from them 30 million - our lion's share. It, without
Exaggerations, huge scales. Clearly, that such integration
Becomes the factor of political stability in region. Well and,
Certainly, will deduce on new level our interstate
Trade: on change "chelnochnikam" businessmen will come,
Representing interests of state and private concerns,
The enterprises and firms.
- The most favoured nation treatment is necessary to trade. However
We cannot agree about cancellation of the double taxation in any way
On borders.
- Alas, it so. The interstate agreement on avoidance
The double taxation and protection of joint investments was
For a long time it is prepared and even it is signed by members of the governments, but...
At first the State Duma has brought a heap of amendments, and the agreement was necessary
perepodpisyvat.
Then the document has again entered parliament where lays without
Movements the second year.
But I believe, that by input time in a system of the first turn
"A blue stream" is a 2001 - barriers will be eliminated.
The states interested in cooperation should facilitate
To the businessmen tax burden and to guarantee protection
Investments.
