| (GEN) TURKISH ENERGY MINISTER MEETS GERMAN BUSINESSMEN IN ANKARA | Turkish energy minister said on Tuesday that
Germany would become one of the most important partners of Turkey in the area of
energy.
Energy and Natural Resources Minister Taner Yildiz had a meeting with German
businessmen over a luncheon hosted by German Ambassador to Turkey Eckart Cuntz in
Ankara.
Yildiz said German companies who attended the meeting had a turnover of
nearly half a trillion U.S. dollars.
"Turkey and Germany have a similar primary energy structure. The two
countries don't have natural gas and oil, but they have coal. Turkey and Germany
can cooperate in this area," he said.
In his part, Cuntz said that there were several German companies which were
eager to invest in the area of energy in Turkey.
Cuntz said such meetings should be held regularly to make Turkish-German
cooperation lasting.
