Based on a contract signed between Baghdad and Ankara, the electricity supply to Iraq will start from December 28th until November 1, 2021.
The head of the Turkish Energy Market Regulatory Authority, Mustafa Yilmaz, said in a statement that his country is now capable of meeting the electricity needs of its neighbors.
