TAP can be considered as an important tool for energy import diversification

Local news, 26.02.2018

The Swiss Ambassador to Azerbaijan, Philipp Stalder's interview to the Caspian Energy Magazine  

"Indeed, the Southern Gas Corridor, and in particular the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) – a consortium with headquarters in Switzerland by the way – can be seen as an important mechanism for Europe to diversify the import of its energy sources. This is true from a Swiss perspective despite the fact that our energy security is not so much dependent on gas from the Caspian Basin. As the representative of the Swiss government in Azerbaijan, I also note with satisfaction that among all the TAP shareholders we have the Swiss energy company AXPO on board which since the early years of the establishment of the TAP consortium takes an active interest in bringing energy from Azerbaijan to Europe and to Switzerland".
