Iran halves gas export to Turkey
Iran reduced daily gas export to Turkey from 28-30 bcm to 14-15 bcm, the Turkish newspaper Haberturk reported.
Iran said that it was caused by the increase in domestic demand due to cold weather.

Haberturk newspaper claimed that Iran took this step after the warplane incident between Turkey and Russia. Iran supports Russia in this incident. The newspaper reported that the weather is normal in Tehran now. The temperature is 6…10 C.

Turkey buys 6 bcm natural gas from Iran every year, which makes 18 percent of Turkey`s gas import. Iran has earlier reduced the gas export to Turkey basing on domestic demand. Turkey has appealed to the court in this regard.
