ST. PETERSBURG (Sputnik) – A delegation of Russian energy giant Gazprom headed by its CEO Alexei Miller will visit Turkey on August 31 for talks on restating the Turkish Stream gas pipeline project, Gazprom Management Committee Deputy Chairman Alexander Medvedev said Tuesday.

On August 10, Gazprom's project management department official Anatoly Fayantsev said that the energy giant was willing to sign an intergovernmental agreement on the Turkish Stream with Turkey and was planning to update a roadmap for the halted project.

"We are planning a visit to Turkey regarding the agenda of our interactions," Medvedev told reporters adding that the sides would discuss the Turkish Stream project.

The Turkish Stream project was suspended after the downing of a Russian Su-24 aircraft by a Turkish F-16 fighter in Syria on November 24.

In June, following Turkey's apology to Russia for the November incident, the sides began a reconciliation process. An intergovernmental deal on the Turkish Stream is expected as soon as October.
