Abstract

Çin'in Orta Doğu'daki etkisi son dönemde dikkatleri üzerine çekmeye başladı.Basra Körfezi'nin stratejik önemi, çoğunlukla bölgenin muazzam petrol ve gaz kaynaklarından kaynaklanmaktadır.Dünyanın en büyük ikinci ekonomisi olan Çin, bölgedeki ekonomik, siyasi ve jeopolitik çıkarlarını aktif olarak sürdürüyor. İran'ın çok büyük petrol ve gaz rezervleri var ama ağır uluslararası yaptırımlar nedeniyle bunları satamıyor. Ancak ek kısıtlamalara rağmen Çin, İran'ın ana petrol müşterisi ve ticari ortağı olmaya devam ediyor. Bu makale, Çin'in enerji güvenliğini sağlamada İran'ın enerji kaynaklarının önemini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır.Bu makale, Çin'in sanayi devriminden sonra iki ülke arasındaki ilişkileri inceleyerek bu konumu analiz etmektedir.

IRAN’S ROLE IN CHINA’S ENERGY SUPPLY

Abstract

China's influence in the Middle East has drawn increased attention recently. The Persian Gulf's strategic importance is mostly due to the region's massive oil and gas resources. As the second largest economy in the world, China is actively pursuing its economic, political, and geopolitical interests in the area. Iran has huge oil and gas reserves but cannot sell them because of severe international sanctions. However, despite additional restrictions, China continues to be Iran's main oil customer and commercial partner. The purpose of this article is to examine the importance of Iran's energy resources in providing China's energy security. This article analyses this position by examining the relations between the two countries after China's industrial revolution.
