MOSCOW. June 4 (Interfax) - The government is making every effort to maintain the investment programs of Transneft and other fuel and energy companies, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak told Interfax.

"We are taking the utmost measures not only for Transneft but for all energy companies so their investment programs can be maintained. Investment programs have to be preserved if in places there is not sufficient revenue to borrow, as the government's general goal is for the economy to recover as quickly as possible, for industry to have orders," he said.
