Azerbaijan and Türkiye are moving their energy cooperation from the project stage towards implementation, Türkiye’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Alparslan Bayraktar has said.

Bayraktar made the remarks in a post on X following his visit to Baku, Caliber.Az reports.

“Türkiye and Azerbaijan are now moving our cooperation in the energy sector from the project stage to implementation. Through the Nakhchivan–Türkiye, Türkiye–Georgia–Azerbaijan–Bulgaria corridors and power transmission lines that will extend under the Black Sea to Europe, we aim to ensure the delivery of the Turkic world’s energy resources to Europe through Türkiye,” he said.

Bayraktar was in Baku for the 5th Azerbaijan-Türkiye Energy Forum, which was also attended by Azerbaijan’s Minister of Energy Parviz Shahbazov.
