Storyline


Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Monday joined a special ceremony in Istanbul to mark the completion of the sea section of the TurkStream natural gas pipeline.

The pipeline, consisting of two separate lines with a length of 930 km each, enters the Black Sea near Anapa on the Russian coast and comes ashore at the Kiyikoy village in the Kirklareli province of northwestern Turkey.

The gas transmission will take around 52 hours from Anapa to Kiyikoy, according to a press release.

Erdogan described the TurkStream project as historical, and said the country has made great efforts together with Russia to bring the landmark project to fruition.

Russia is a reliable partner for Turkey and an important natural gas provider that they can cooperate with in the long run, he added, noting Turkey has bought 387 billion cubic meters of natural gas from Russia since 1987.

TurkStream is expected to carry a total of 31.5 billion cubic meters of Russian natural gas per year to Turkey and Europe, bypassing Ukraine. Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom is planning to start the construction of the overland section of TurkStream in 2019.

Edrogan also said Turkey plans to transfer at least half of the natural gas to Europe, noting the entire project will be operational by the end of next year.

For his part, Putin said the delivery of natural gas is not a simple process but requires high technology.

It is also not possible to carry out such a project without political will and courage, the Russian leader stated, saying the project will make Turkey an important center of natural gas and enhance its position in the region.

The two presidents also held a closed-door meeting over regional issues.

Commenting on the energy project, Prof. Selcuk Colakoglu, director of the Turkish Center for Asia Pacific Studies, praised it as a landmark of Turkey-Russia cooperation across multiple areas.

"It's a very remarkable project and also it was a very fast-tracked project between Turkey and Russia. It is also showing the complete cooperation and economic collaboration between Turkey and Russia in general," he said.
