President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the flow of Turkmenistan natural gas through Iran started on March 1, and over 250 million cubic meters of gas has been supplied through this line so far, Anadolu reports.
"We will hopefully have ensured the flow of a total of 1.3 billion cubic meters of natural gas by the end of the year.
"At this point, our first plan is to extend the agreement for another five years, and our ultimate goal is to bring Turkmen gas to our country via the Caspian pipeline," he said.
"If we can achieve this, we will have the opportunity to provide a much higher amount of gas flow for both our country and Europe."
The President of Turkey said works in the field of renewable energy are also continuing at full speed.
