Concerns and Regional Developments over Türkiye’s Energy Security

Concerns and Regional Developments over Türkiye’s Energy Security

Sibel Elif ÖZDİLEK

Özet

Türkiye, despite its limited domestic energy resources, occupies a strategically significant geographical position that enhances its role in global energy geopolitics. Situated at the crossroads of energy-rich regions in the Middle East and the Caspian Basin, as well as energy-dependent Europe, Türkiye has become a vital transit route for energy supplies, particularly natural gas. The geopolitical landscape has shifted following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, underscoring Türkiye’s potential importance in strengthening European energy security as the EU seeks to reduce its reliance on Russian energy. Rather than merely serving as an energy transit corridor, Türkiye’s political leadership aims to leverage its geopolitical advantages to enhance domestic energy security and establish the country as a regional energy hub, facilitating trade between international energy market participants.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Concerns, Regional Developments, Türkiye, Energy Security, Energy Market.
