Turkey's Energy Crisis: Protecting Black Sea Supplies

Turkeys Energy Minister, Alparslan Bayraktar, calls for protection of Black Sea oil and gas supplies following Russian tanker attacks. He emphasizes the importance of keeping energy infrastructure out of conflict, as Turkey relies heavily on imported gas, with Russia fulfilling nearly half of its energy needs. Bayraktar defends Russian gas purchases but acknowledges the need for diversification. Turkey also collaborates with Russia on a nuclear power plant, aiming to resolve financing issues and generate ten percent of its electricity.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story.
