"Turkish Stream" is frozen until the relations between Moscow and Ankara get warmer.
The "Turkish Stream" pipeline is not in the list of areas of Russian-Turkish cooperation, which are officially closed after the attack on the Russian Su-24. Although, according to "the Kommersant", the option of full cancellation of the project was considered, "Gazprom" was able to achieve its freezing until the relations with Ankara improve. Monopoly can wait for two years: in order to abandon the Ukrainian transit by 2020, at least one thread of "Turkish Stream" should be built in 2018.
