Obviously the first batches will be most expensive, since you have to somehow get the costs for the development in. We need to get some sales in or find a partner. I know its expensive to develop these capabilities, and you we profit from it in long term, but compared to other jets in the...

That's expensive, I hope we can get some foreign partner or orders, so we can push that price down.

Its not necessary to have them in Turkey, but NATO's Nuclear Sharing is a pillar of Turkish defence and security.

Those that joined early died or made enough money through corruption and extortion and left. Only few of the original FSA are around and this guy looks too young to have joined 10 years ago. Must be easy to make good money.

True, I have seen mud buildings in my grandparents village that have withstood earthquakes that are in a better condition than gecekondus.

Oh they will build and rebuild, after all its the Erdogan close companies getting the most out of it. But whether the new buildings will be safer, that's another topic.

Lots of very cryptic messages lately. Could be targeted at Qatar too, so I wouldn't put too much value on it. I just don't see right now how a new chapter can be opened with the UAE. I'm a bit pessimistic when it comes to the UAE. Maybe Egypt and Israel warming up to Turkey could bring some...

I don't fully understand it like you do, because you have to live through it. But I'm not blind to see what my family that was not as lucky as my part of the family has to go through. I used to drive a lot of carpools and had many Turkish students with me in the car back in the days, they had...

I dont think that people living abroad should be able to vote in general elections tbf. In Turkey Almancis or people from Germany in general are known to tell the locals how good they have it, how much taxes they have to pay - while on holiday in Turkey once a year stereotypically driving a...

Well you can always go back. Be the change you want to see and not a hypocrite.

Thats not what I said. But its still morally corrupt to support left wing parties in Germany and at the same time to support an undemocratic, corrupt and very nationalistic government in Turkey.

Check out this Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/MarkABentley and this articlesfor the lack of alternatives https://www.reuters.com/article/turkey-economy-reforms-int-idUSKBN2B41U3 Its a bit long to summarize quickly, but to summarize the 5 main points: - fiscal policy tightening - price...

Good news if true. But someone needs to help me with where this fits in between our self-developed systems and S400.

Its not the same everywhere, for example you can't compare the Turkish community in the US or UK with let's say Netherlands or Germany. And I dont mean to generalize everyone, because there is a lot of opposition against the government policy among Turks here in Germany too, but Erdogan...

Turkish governments and cooperating with the opposition? We're talking about a government that will decline opposition motions, just to introduce the same one months later.

The planned economic reforms and policies have been announced. https://ms.hmb.gov.tr/uploads/2021/03/Ekonomik-Reformlar-Kitapcigi.pdf Sounds good, but my Economics prof would say that they are not detailed enough: When will these targets be reached, how and what are the exact targets?

Turkey has more to offer both Egypt and Israel, whether its EEZ or the proposed pipeline that would be feasible with Turkish involvement, i.e. linking it to the existing infrastructure at Ceyhan. Turkey could also be a consumer of Israeli and Egypt gas. If only we had competent officials.

In addition, there are differences between Egypt and the United Arab Emirates over a number of regional issues, including the Libyan conflict and the Emiratis’ normalization of relations with Israel. Some reports indicate that there is a widening gap between the two countries’ perceptions of...

No improvement, just the government realizing that they have turned almost every extended neighbour into opposing Turkey and that it could help not to have all your neighbours be your enemies.

Some websites were spreading the false news that Turkish companies bought stakes in the company.
