Iran can export natural gas to Ukraine
Iranian ambassador to Ukraine and Moldova Akbar Qasemi Aliabadi said that the Islamic Republic holds huge gas reserves and is ready to supply the two European countries with natural gas.
"Both Ukraine and Moldova are in need of natural gas. Iran enjoys vast gas reserves, and is prepared to consider future supply of gas to the two countries," Aliabadi said, Press TV reported.
Ukraine is currently securing a major portion of its needed gas through imports from Russia.
Ukrainian authorities say that high prices have forced them to look for ways to reduce the country's dependence on Russian gas.
Iran, which sits on the world's second largest natural gas reserves after Russia, has been trying to enhance its gas production by increasing foreign and domestic investment, especially in its South Pars Gas Field.
