Context
- Archetype
- two unequal members meeting across a sea and two pipelines
- Population
- 85.9 million in Türkiye and 143.5 million in the Russian Federation, 20251
- Trade
- pipeline gas to Türkiye about 11 billion m³ in January to June 202529
- Hazard
- earthquake damage of US$34.2 billion in 202330; drought in 202515
The member editions (Türkiye, Russian Federation) and this regional edition share finding identifiers where they read the same evidence, so a correction travels to every edition at once.
MEMBER EDITIONS
Same findings, same IDs
Eurasia evidence enters the water, energy, food, finance and climate sector reports through the same finding identifiers.
GLOBAL SECTOR SERIES
Regional evidence, sector reports
In the global edition Eurasia is read against peer distributions and thresholds, never placed in a league table.
