Following a meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron, Borisov said he was optimistic about the project which will transport natural gas, supplied from the Shah Deniz field in Azerbaijan, from the Bulgarian-Turkish border to Austria, passing through Romania and Hungary.

Bulgarian Prime Minister aslo said that he had explained to his fellows from the European People`s Party both the idea for the gas hub, as well as the restoration of the Nabucco-West project.

In late June the consortium of the Azerbaijani Shah Deniz field development selected the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) as the gas transportation route to the European markets. TAP is designed to transport gas from the Caspian region via Greece and Albania and across the Adriatic Sea to southern Italy and then to Western Europe
