[Russia approves gas supply agreement with Cosco East Route]It is reported that the Russian State Duma passed a bill on the approval of Russia and Cosco East route gas supply cooperation agreement. According to earlier news, Russia and China plan to build a pipeline from Dalinelechensk in Russia to Hulin in China across the Ussuri River under the Far East Pipeline cooperation project. In early February 2022, Gazprom and petrochina signed a long-term contract on the annual export of 10 billion cubic meters of natural gas to China via the Far East Route. After the project is implemented, the total supply of natural gas from Russia to China will reach 48 billion cubic meters. Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said earlier that the implementation of the Russia-China cooperation agreement on gas supply from Russia to China via the Far East Route is beneficial to both countries and will further promote the development of Russia's Far East region.
