Fars: Turkey Keen on Implementation of ITE Gas Pipeline Project
Ankara has started talks with Iran for the construction of Iran–Turkey–Europe Natural Gas Pipeline Project (ITE) to convey the gas supplies to Europe through Turkey, media reports said.
The pipeline project is being considered by Turkey as international sanctions against Iran’s energy sector are shrinking following the implementation of Iran’s nuclear deal with world powers, the Turkish paper Today Zaman reported on Sunday.
For transit passage of natural gas sourced in Iran through Turkey, the Iranian Oil Ministry and the Energy and Natural Sources Ministry of the Republic of Turkey signed an "Agreement Protocol" on November 17, 2008.
