The Turkish also said that one of the reasons for Ankara to negotiate with the US is the concern about the increase in gas consumption in the cold season in that country and added that in this regard, government officials are thinking of increasing the amount of gas imports to Turkey.
The Turkish government has predicted that the number of foreign tourists traveling to Turkey will increase in upcoming winter, and for this reason, they consider increasing the amount of gas imports.
