The agreement between Bulgargaz and Botaş under which Bulgaria is granted access to the Turkish state energy company's gas transmission infrastructure was described by Iotova and Oktay as the most immediate and direct result of the talks between the presidents. It became clear that Turkey, which is making progress in the development of hydrogen technologies, is willing to cooperate with Bulgaria in this field.
