In total, there were about 260 German military personnel, six Tornado reconnaissance aircraft equipped with special optics, and one tanker aircraft at the Incirlik airbase.

The formal reason for the departure was the prohibition of the Turkish government on the German parliamentarians visiting the military contingent at the air base. 15 May reported that the Turkish authorities once again denied a group of German deputies to visit Ingirlik.

Other reasons were various reasons, in particular, the adoption of a resolution by the Bundestag, in which the events of 1915 in the Ottoman Empire were recognized as genocide of the Armenian people, as well as Berlin’s granting political asylum to the Turkish military who fled the country after the failed attempt of the coup in July 2016.

        You're right! And what’s most interesting, the Germans now definitely won’t sell their tank engines to them, and now we don’t have to talk about the localization of licensed production. The further scenario of development of the situation is interesting, because the Turks do not have their own engine for their new Altai tank. True, the Kokuls offer their own and sell a license for its production almost for nothing, but the Turks are somehow not sure.

      To be honest, I don’t understand what the German Tornadoes are doing there! Intelligence and drones do an excellent job. Pure excuse about the "fight against terrorism"?

      In Rammstein, even German laws do not work, which one is there to kick out. In addition, it is very beneficial for the region: one of the largest employers.

    Everything spun after Erdogan’s attempt to speak to the Turks living in Germany. Speeches were clearly not peacekeeping, but there were elections on the nose, the Germans were scared. And now they are removing their own so as not to stumble upon the revenge of the offended Erdogan.

    -Germans and Turks are united by a huge "period of friendship" ... -In the last wars, they were always on the same side ... -And today ... -Germans will never leave Turkey ... -Yes, and lives in Germany itself 21 million Turks. !!!
    -In this situation, Germany doesn’t have very many ways about any radical political decisions in relations with Turkey ... -Germany has cornered itself and now it is in no way possible for it to lose its influence on Turkey and remove troops from its territory ... -She will never take them away ...
