Turkish exporters mull new sea route to alleviate Bulgaria border gridlock - Türkiye News

Turkish export representatives are contemplating a plan to alleviate truck congestion at the Türkiye-Bulgaria border by transporting vehicles to Romania via sea routes, aiming to resolve the bottleneck through maritime logistics, local media has reported.

But why from Sakarya, why not develop and expand in black sea area and develop a new port to serve for agricultural export only! AMK as if the istanbul strait is not trafficked enough.

Thats why Canal Istanbul should be established. Look how much money Panama and Egypt are making with their canals. Searoutes are always the safest, even in times of war.

we already have a fucking strait there is no need spend money to make another. it's much cheaper to build a new port than to make your own fucking panama canal. Plus expanding an existing one will only benefit the region that gets it.

We dont earn a fucking dime with our straits because of all the restrictions and regulations.

We need to invest in a new one that could race with the old one in time and comfort. Its worth the investment.

With the money they spend on luxury cars and appartments for the kids and grandkids of the ministers, they could have build a new canal.

With our geography we needed a domestic canal far before our domestic drone, tank, jet etc. But because we have a cancer in the opposition, a party like CHP, blocking everything that could benefit our country, we never made it.

The Panama Canal is making so much money that Donald Trump wants to annex it, think about that.

Comparison of Panama and Canal Istanbul meaningless, as there is no alternative to Panama Canal.

You can bypass Panama Canal. Yes, you have to buy in a longer way, but it’s possible. For Bulgaria or Romania or Georgia. it’s impossible to bypass Bosporus.

 

[GoatsMilk]

I agree. When they invented multinationals as Fokker, Philips and DAF, we were building statues and fighting about headscarfs.

Islamists are still fighting in every place you find them, mostly killing each other. Or when you find them in the west they are arguing over the age of consent.

Impossible to progress when the islamist mindset like the cultural marxist mindset is constantly at war with itself and everyone else. Just think about it, the Islamists are excited for the idea of war with Isreal. If that happens what do you think will happen to Turkiye? Ill tell you what will happen Turkiye will be entirely f'ked and the americans won't need to attack us, just a few sanctions and most of the nation will search the bins to find food. No different to how the greeks were searching the bins for food not so long ago.

Ok, you did not understand Tornados post Mate. Because that is exactly what he wrote.

I am comparing canal Istanbul to Panama not Bosporus. If canal Istanbul would built there are still Bosporus as alternative. And nobody would(commercially) go around American continent to bypass Panama.

Next step is, narrow the Bosporus, increase the traffic to force the ships to use Istanbul canal.
You guys have to think that you are not the only genius on the planet.

I dont know how the treaties on Bosphorus work but why not simply raise the prices on Bosphorus transit and save the costs of the second channel?

The second channel is an infrastructure that increases GDP and attracts investment, allowing relevant people to make money.

Stop investing everything into Istanbul!!! We have an earthquake reality for Istanbul. Istanbul is crowded as hell like Delhi, Bangladesh, etc.
we have a huge Anatolia. All investments should be spreaded in it.

You sound exactly like the average Azerbaijani complaining about all the funding going to building new stuff in Baku instead of investing in the rest of the country.

Don't get me wrong though, I absolutely agree with the sentiment.

Immigration to istanbul needs to be stopped.

Istanbul takes way too much investment. Its ridiculous. What do you expect especially what Erdogan said the one who controls Istanbul controls the country.

AKP supporters from the Anatolian heartland need to wake up.
