I hope that in longterm those Metrobusses can be upgraded to Trams.

In the region where my family is from (Manisa) there are a lot of cooperatives that own machinery that you can use/rent even for smaller farmers that do not have the funds. I like the idea of cooperatives because together they are stronger, but we need more technology in farming. Productivity...

As a side note maybe: German Hensoldt is now a public traded company and Germany took a stategic blocking minority in the company, in order to protect it from foreign takeovers. I wonder how their products compare to the Turkish equivalents...

I know a lot of you will disagree, but I hope we can cooperate with the Americans in Libya with the new government in Washington the priority of countering Russia will be higher again.

Agree with Saithan, sanctions didnt even make the news in Germany. Dont let our filter bubble mislead us. There were more reports and time on TV today about Covid19, the new climate goals of the EU or even Brexit (still).

We still have not announced any zero emission goals and the EU Green Deal is the perfect timing to do so and join the drive. 1. It will influence our exports, they will start taxing carbon. 2. its cheap funding for green projects from the EU, afaik Vakif Bank already took a 700m € syndicated...

Wow that missile is a beast.

You gotta love FT, no publication as informed and connected as it. https://www.ft.com/content/d4b30494-8ccb-457a-aa67-ee1b2625ca88 Exerpts: One of the people said the sanctions would probably be announced on Friday and were being crafted to be “as mild as possible” to placate Congress while...

Let's see if Trump chooses some light sanctions as a goodbye gift to his bro Erdogan or if Pompeo and their likes had the say.

So for the amateuers like me: SM-3 compareable to S400/Patriots. ESSM is close to our Hisar O, but of course not land based. Correct?

Pavements are a serious issue though. Sometimes you see kaldirims 50cm high in random spots. So your parents were not wrong.

It is far from certain a compromise can be struck. But the Turkish official said Mr. Biden’s advisers have indicated in low-level discussions they were open to considering compromises as they are proposed, including convening a NATO working group to look at whether Russia could indeed penetrate...

Now that we are producing engineering talent and expertise, I look forward to see what these engineers might come up with in the future. Whether that's in their current companies, other companies or startups. You know how every parent in Turkey told their kids to become a bureaucrat? I hope we...

They might as well put it on Amazon.

Afaik many of them are political hires and not career diplomats. The new ambassador to France went to school / university ? with Macron at one point, which is ironic.
