Azerbaijan is a vital energy partner for the EU. With 🇦🇿 President Aliyev, we discussed our shared objective to deepen this partnership, incl. via the #EUEnergyPlatform on joint gas purchasing and in the field of renewables, like green hydrogen. Thank you for a valuable exchange.

The first-ever tender for joint purchasing of gas via #AggregateEU is underway.

77 European companies have submitted requests for a total volume of 11.6 bcm of gas. I invite all reliable international suppliers to submit their bids by 15/5.

Pleased to have met 🇴🇲 Minister Salim Al Aufi. A forward-looking exchange on the #EUEnergyPlatform and the green transition.

A clear potential for Oman's engagement on #AggregateEU for joint gas purchasing, while also exploring collaboration on its potential successor, hydrogen.
