Since it is estimated that Turkey will be 65-70% dependent on Russia in natural gas consumption, Turkey is in alternative searches about energy lines and in case the cost of the construction of the BTC pipeline within its own boundaries exceeds 1,4 billion dollars, Turkey has undertaken to pay for the amount above this limit.
