Europe gas pipeline deal agreed

Four European Union countries and Turkey have signed an agreement to construct the long-planned 3,300km Nabucco natural gas pipeline. Once completed, the line will bring up to 31 billion cubic metres of gas a year from the Caspian and the Middle East across Turkey and into Europe. It will give an important alternative energy supply to Russia, which already meets 30% of Europe's gas needs.
