Sizeable, yet peanuts compared to ever increasing Washington interest-payments to its foreign creditors.

Exxon LNG import agreement is roughly 1.1 billion $.
About 1.3 % of Turkey's energy imports.

Turkey did import American LNG in previous years as well.
Nevertheless Russian gas will always have a sizeable share in Turkey.

Turkey has seven international natural gas pipelines, which are connected to Russia and vulnerable to Ukraine's drone strikes. Since Turkey imports almost all of its natural gas, it needs to diversity suppliers and ensure the country's supply security.

Noting that Ankara imports almost all of its natural gas needs, Bayraktar said that Türkiye aims to create a new supply portfolio without being dependent on a single supplier.

Pointing out that Türkiye is evaluating gas purchase options from different sources to ensure the country's supply security, Bayraktar said: "For security of supply, we need to get gas from somewhere. It could be from Russia, it could be from Azerbaijan, it could be Iran, or LNG options."
