Duda, Trump discuss LNG supplies to Ukraine

Poland wants to become a gas hub along the North-South axis and supply liquefied natural gas (LNG) from the United States to Ukraine.

Polish President Andrzej Duda said this at a press conference with his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump on Thursday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"I am convinced the answer is ‘yes’ [that Poland can become a gas hub], and we will talk about this during the Three Seas Initiative summit. This is also the question of the gas corridor along the North-South axis, as well as the question of possibly ensuring alternative gas supplies to Ukraine, which is a very important issue, "Duda said.

He described as very optimistic cooperation with the United States in the gas sector and the beginning of LNG supplies from the U.S. to Poland on a permanent basis.
