Russia
and the United States are discussing the possibility of cooperating in liquefied natural gas (LNG), not only in the Russian Arctic zone but also in the U.S. state of Alaska, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Friday.
Speaking at a meeting with nuclear industry workers
and scientists in Sarov, Nizhny Novgorod region, Putin noted that several Russian companies, including major LNG producer Novatek, are already cooperating with partners from Europe
and Asia.
"We are also discussing with American partners the possibility of working together in this area,
and not only in our Arctic zone, but also in Alaska," Putin said, quoted by TASS news agency.
Putin noted that Russia possesses unique LNG technologies, which have attracted the interest of its partners, including those from the United States.
