Iraqi Minister of Electricity, Ziyad Ali Fadhil, received Turkish Minister of Energy, Alparslan Bayraktar, in Baghdad on Sunday, in the presence of Turkish Ambassador Anil Bora Inan, to discuss prospects for cooperation in the energy sector and strengthening the electrical interconnection between the two countries.

The Iraqi minister confirmed, according to a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, that the Ministry of Electricity has completed all preparations to increase the supply capacity via the Iraqi-Turkish interconnection line to 600 megawatts, proposing the formation of a joint higher technical committee to follow up on the implementation of the agreements.
