Turkey and Syria Agree on New Energy Agreement
Turkey will increase energy exports to Syria to help the country's new regime get its infrastructure in order, which was heavily damaged by the fighting that took place at the end of last year, AFP reports.
Turkish Energy Minister Arsparslan Bayraktar met with his Syrian counterpart Mohammad al-Bashir on Thursday, where they agreed that Turkey will triple its exports.
The country will also "shortly" start delivering gas to the cities of Aleppo and Homs. This is just over two billion cubic meters of fossil gas, according to Bayraktar.
