The President of the Defense Industry Ismail Demir stated that the restrictions on the exports of the United Kingdom to Turkey regarding the defense industry products have been lifted, according to Turkish media, as reported by ertnews.
Demir and his accompanying delegation recently visited England to hold various meetings with BAE Systems and Rolls-Royce, one of the country’s leading defense companies.
Turkish media interpret Britain’s decision as a result of Turkey’s veto on Sweden and Finland joining NATO.
It was also noted that President Erdogan’s spokesman had separate telephone conversations with US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, Swedish Deputy Foreign Minister Robert Rydberg, Finnish President’s Foreign Ministry Adviser Petri Hakkarain Germany’s Jens Plötner and UK National Security Adviser Stephen Lovegrove had cited restrictions on exports to Turkey.
A statement from the Turkish Presidency’s Communications Directorate said that if Turkey’s expectations were not met, progress in the process would not be possible. It was also stressed that it is unacceptable to allow the presence of the PKK / PYD / YPG terrorist organization and FETO members in NATO members and in other countries.
Finally, Turkey’s expectation of lifting unfair export restrictions on the defense industry and not imposing sanctions on allies was underlined.
