Gazprom agrees to resume Turkmen imports
Gazprom on Tuesday agreed to resume Turkmen gas imports next year, ending a nine-month political dispute, but the volumes were less than half of what had been agreed in deals before a supply dispute prompted Ashgabat to develop new markets in China and Iran.
In 2011, a Russian company ``Gazprom'' will continue exploration of two oil and gas fields in southern Kyrgyzstan, according to the Minister of Natural Resources of KR Zamirbek Esenamanov.
