dc.description.abstractEnergy requirements brought about by the industrialization and rapid population growth in developing countries such as Turkey have led to different processes. In particular, the inadequacy of underground sources of energy to meet the energy demand, Turkey is headed to energy imports. This situation makes Turkey dependent on outside day by day. European Union countries lacking in energy sources such as Turkey, are making various energy agreements in order to solve this problem. In these energy agreements, the source geography is the Asian continent, especially the Caucasus. Turkey, along with Russia, is the main actor on the energy route between East and West. Partnership on energy with Russia began in the 1960s has made Russia the dominant power for Turkey's energy. This study examines the energy relationship between Turkey and Russia, where cooperation and rivalry are inevitable in terms of national and international interests. In this context, the factors that are subject to the energy relationship between the two countries were discussed in the study. The conclusion reached at the end of the study is that although the competition is at the forefront, the two countries have to cooperate as they are the main actors for the East-West energy route. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.en_US

dc.description.sponsorshipThe BTC line, which was opened in 2005 as a product of many years of work, has been in constant conflict with Blue Stream, which opened in the same year. While the BTC project receives full support from the United States and the European Union (EU), it aimed to market Azerbaijan's hydrocarbon resources to the world independently of Russia. Despite Russia opposing this situation at every turn, the project has been criticized as a political project rather than an economic one [4]. BTC is an important breakthrough for the East-West Energy Corridor project, where political support from the United States of America and the EU plays an important role. With the East-West Energy Corridor project, it was aimed to transfer not only Azerbaijan but also Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan energy resources to the West via Turkey. However, in the future, Russia's policies on energy routes also had an impact on Turkmenistan. As a matter of fact, Turkmenistan was located outside this corridor, citing the legal status of the Caspian Sea and other political elements, and for that period it signed a sales agreement with the Russian company Gazprom for 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas produced at 65 billion cubic meters per year [10]. This dealt a significant blow to the East-West corridor project at the time.en_US
