Türkiye emerges stronger from global conflicts, minister says

Global conflicts, including those in the Middle East, continue to affect Türkiye’s economy, but the country has developed the capacity to manage such challenges, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Alparslan Bayraktar said.

Speaking at a panel session during the Antalya Diplomacy Forum, Bayraktar noted that Türkiye’s repeated exposure to economic crises over the years has helped build resilience and adaptability, Caliber.Az reports, citing local media.

“Crises have shaped our resilience and reliability. Over the past 25 years, energy prices in Türkiye have fluctuated significantly, but we have managed to strengthen the economy and achieve substantial progress in the energy sector,” he said.

According to Bayraktar, cooperation with neighboring countries has been a key factor in this progress. He emphasized that joint projects, particularly with Azerbaijan, have played an important role in strengthening Türkiye’s energy sector and overall economic stability.
