Turkish Energy Minister on Europe's Russian Gas Issue

Turkish Energy Minister Alparslan Bayraktar stated that Europe has put itself in a difficult position by refusing to import Russian gas. He considered that the decision to build the "TurkStream" pipeline in 2016 was a strategic investment that benefited Turkey. Despite global crises such as the pandemic and the Ukrainian conflict, Turkey's energy security was not affected, and its reliance on gas imports from Russia, Azerbaijan, and Iran increased. Turkish company BOTAŞ has signed long-term agreements with American and French companies to supply around 70 billion cubic meters of gas over 20 years. He affirmed that Turkey will continue to purchase gas from Russia because it is a reliable source.
