Turkey, Azerbaijan break ground for Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline - ENERGY

Turkey, Azerbaijan break ground for Trans-Anatolian Gas Pipeline - ENERGY:



"Turkey's energy minister has declared a gas pipeline a "peace corridor" linking the Caucasus with the Balkans.



"We open the project as a peace corridor that is the result of 15 years hard work by Turkey and Azerbaijan. Through the South Caucasus pipeline and its backbone, the Trans-Anatolia pipeline, we connect the Caucasus with the Balkans. I wish every country could understand the true value of these projects and contribute with us," Taner Yıldız said while speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony of the South Caucasus pipeline in Baku on Sept. 20.



The minister said energy security "ranks as one of the main topics of global agenda" and dialogue between countries producing, transporting and consuming energy is "highly important.""
