Iran is ready to supply gas to Europe, the Director for International Relations of the National Iranian Gas Company (NIGC) Azizollah Ramezani stated today.
"Iran's location, which has the largest gas reserves in the world, allows it to sell gas to all countries," TASS quoted the Iranian official, who welcomed the visits of partners from Europe to Tehran in order to strengthen bilateral relations in the field of energy and gas, with reference to the Iranian Mehr news agency.
Exports of Iranian gas should not be limited to neighboring countries or the region, "accordingly, supplies of gas to distant countries, especially the EU member states, should be included on the agenda. Gas exports to Europe have international and political advantages in addition to the economic benefits," Ramezani noted.
