Baghdad, October 21 (Xinhua) — Iraq and Turkmenistan signed an agreement to expand energy cooperation amid Baghdad's ongoing efforts to overcome a protracted energy crisis, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry announced on Tuesday.
The agreement, signed on October 20, includes a memorandum of understanding in the areas of energy and gas imports aimed at meeting the needs of both countries.
The agreement came after Iraq's plan to import Turkmen gas via neighboring Iran fell through in September under US pressure, forcing Baghdad to seek alternative sources of supply to keep its national energy grid running.
