Gazprom is due to start exporting gas to China
in December via the eastern Power of Siberia pipeline.
"Please, look into the resources of Yamal (Peninsula) as well,

the western route to China via Mongolia," Putin told Gazprom
head Alexei Miller at a meeting, adding that the partners in
China also "lean toward" this route.
