TEI&TRMotor(TAI-owned companies) +Ivchenko Progress vs Kale&RR.

~3600$ in 2001 is equal to ~6000$ today so per capita real growth is less than you think. 3500 to 4000 dollars in over 2 decades is hardly a thing to brag about.

Ahmet Davutoğlu and Ali Babacan raised objections to the protocol offered by Ümit Özdağ.
