Russia and Iran have signaled their commitment to deepen energy cooperation by working on new overland gas corridors, according to a statement from the Russian Cabinet.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak and Iran’s Minister of Petroleum Mohsen Paknejad have agreed to continue collaborating on the development of new overland gas routes connecting the two countries, the Russian Cabinet announced following bilateral talks.
“Alexander Novak noted that Russia is ready to provide assistance to the expansion of trade and economic ties between the Eurasian Economic Union and Iran,” the statement read.
The two sides reaffirmed their commitment to advancing joint energy projects, particularly in gas transportation, signaling strategic alignment amid growing Western sanctions on both nations.
In addition to discussing gas corridors, Novak and Paknejad highlighted the strong cooperation between their countries within the OPEC+ alliance and their coordination at the Gas Exporting Countries Forum.
The new gas corridors would aim to enhance regional energy integration and potentially supply energy to markets beyond Iran through future transit agreements.
