Record decline: German exports of weapons and components to Turkey fell 2020 times in 15

The German media published data on the military-technical contacts between Berlin and Ankara. In particular, it is reported about a record decline in recent years in German exports of arms and other military products to Turkey.

According to the latest information, in 2020 such exports collapsed 15 times. If at the end of 2019 the indicators were about 344,6 million euros, then at the end of 2020 - already less than 23 million.

The German press reports on what this is connected with.

It points to the introduction of an arms embargo against Ankara in connection with its military invasion of northern Syria, controlled by Kurdish formations. These sanctions were introduced in the fall of 2019. After that, exports steadily fell, and in 2020 only those contacts were implemented that were concluded between Turkey and Germany until October 2019.

In connection with the German embargo in Turkey, the implementation of the tank project was suspended, problems arose with other military-technical programs.

Germany introduced new anti-Turkish sanctions after Turkish ships began to explore fields in the Eastern Mediterranean.

At the same time, the German press notes that against the background of a sharp drop in the volume of contracts with Turkey in the military-industrial complex, the volume of orders from Egypt began to grow. Today, this portfolio amounts to almost 0,75 billion euros. Also Germany sells weapon and components for some other countries of the Middle East - Qatar, Kuwait and the UAE.

Recall that at the end of last year, several other countries, including the United States, introduced sanctions against Turkey. In particular, the accounts of the leadership of the Directorate of Military Development were frozen.

Bayraktary will now be more difficult to do, there everything NATO has limited the supply of spare parts.

[Giant thought]

After all, they can sometimes make wise decisions in Germany. Our benefit will be that it will now be more difficult for Turkey to arm the Ukraine that hates us.

[Machito]

It seems that the Turks themselves want to replace imports in Ukraine at a cheap price.

[OgnennyiKotik]

They now have 2 technical partners, the main ones, Ukraine and England. Britain quarreled with Europe i.e. with Germany and France, began to actively make friends with the Turks.
The Germans seemed to have perked up and realized that they were losing the Turkish market, but until the election of a new chancellor (Merkel leaves), nothing will fundamentally change.

[military_cat]

Now in Turkey, someone probably says that the sanctions were imposed on a far-fetched pretext, and if they were not imposed for the Kurds, they would still be imposed for something else. So it is easier to disaccustom the population to think once again, but whether the decisions of the Turkish ruling elite were really correct.

It's not even about the market, the British are professionals in manipulating states in the BV, I think they will play these cards within 7-15 years and will try to strengthen their spheres of influence.
PS. But socks in their mouths, as they began to lose colonies, so they begin to lose financial flows, financial centers are shifting to the APR.
Egyptians, Iranians, Turks and other BV countries should be very careful in dealing with the dark hag.

[OgnennyiKotik]

Naturally, Britam is not interested in the Turkish market. They need control and resources in Transcaucasia, Central Asia, North Africa, the Middle East, Iran, Pakistan. Turkey can become another lever. Turks need technology and money. By the way, Cyprus is also under the British, which can also be a bargaining chip.

Imha, everything will be integrated.
With the collapse of the USSR, Western countries rushed their markets to the East, simultaneously pumping out everything of value, including cutting down forests. Now everything is complicated for them, in the domestic market there is fierce competition, which is aggravated by depleted natural resources, they have no way to the West, there is only one water around, so it turns out that they have a "path" to the East and across the Mediterranean Sea. They are already afraid to go head-on to the East. Much can be assumed, but even their education system and medicine are degrading. In Switzerland! children in grades 1-2-3, (4-5-6, etc.) study together, the child can pick his nose and lie on the mat with headphones on, the main thing should not be conflicts, tolerance.
Medicine, ours from Austria, Serbia, USA, England arrive and run to take tests and analyzes with us, to treat teeth with us (although our system is moving along their path with this "optimization").
England is holding a little better than France, they, being in the EU, still kept themselves apart.
In general, life will not be better. With the introduction of digital technologies, food will become more affordable, the spectacle is greater and the quality of life for the majority, only worse.

They got excited ... who like ... Volkswagen, after the decision not to build an assembly plant, has now closed its subsidiary in Turkey ... and at the same time announced its decision to invest a billion euros in a plant in Slovakia

[Dkuznecov]

The Americans kicked the Germans, and there was at once
proud and independent Germany has a "wise decision".

I'm just sure the Germans are bitter
tears are shedding over the cancellation of contracts,
painfully they love money.

And Erdogan needs to decide quickly,
whether he's smart, or handsome.
Instead of trying to sit on a few
chairs at the same time.

Lyra broke the bottom,
Turkey is in deep debt.

Russia or China will replace all NATO.

[TermNachTer]

Now they cannot be made, because the engine and the optoelectronic module are imported.

[Doccor18]

The Turks will turn out, but all this will take a lot of time and more financial resources ...

[TermNachTer]

This is exactly what the Turks have with financial resources, so they will be sad. Again Erdik will have to crawl to the Kremlin on his knees))))

[no better place for]

Loan, for money or technology to the bayraktar?)) Analysts do not understand that everything that you ascribe to Turkey concerns the Russian Federation? Like an embargo, the economy is in opa, it will tear your pants into 3 fronts)))

Considering how he "got stuck" with his party comrades (NATO), I am plagued by vague doubts. As they say in certain circles: "Erdik completely misled the Ramses", followed by a blow to the head with a heavy object))))

[Vladimir_2U]

I don’t think it’s critical for the Turks. Russia does not threaten them, Iran is also not particularly, it seems, Greece is just ridiculous. And Turkey itself rivets any not too technological.

[Alex russia]

Turkey still annoys Russia, the barmaleev will be sent as in the past, in the Crimea they still have to win back, we must build the great Turan! Christianity and the Slavs are an alien element for them, so don't relax

[DEVIL LIFE'S]

How is it beneficial for Russia, that is the question. Or like this: find benefit from this situation.

[Gennady Fomkin]

The heads of the Turk are scared straight. The world must begin to live honestly, and each on his own.

[Sergey39]

Now the Turks will be engaged in import substitution.

[Alex russia]

yes, this is how Russia is engaged;))

[Sayan]

Let them squabble, it plays into our hands

[Poetry]

The Turks looked at how the "Leopards" burned with a blue flame in Afrin, hit by a penny ATGM and said: "Shaise!"

[Alex russia]

of course, American T-60s 70 years ago are much more reliable! The Altai tank project turned out to be stillborn, so you have to be content with what you have

[parusnik]

It is unlikely that the Turks were upset, they will buy in the same way, but through third parties.

[wt100]

But my calculator is buggy? It was 344.6 m.u., now less than 28 m.u. I get something else 344.6 / 28 = 12 times, not 15. And if their salary is rounded up in about the same way, they received 15, i.e., and their boss up to 12, i.e. Eh zhurnalyugi

[Volodin]

Hike, it's not about the calculator)))

Quote: wt100

It was 344.6 m.u., now less than 28 m.u.

Hmm ...
From the article:

about 344,6 million euros, then by the end of 2020 - already less than 23 million

Know comments, as they say ...

[wt100]

Thank you for correcting it, not being attentive

[ximkim]

Old love doesn't rust Something these sanctions are doubtful. Or I don’t know something

[askort154]

The largest arms supplier to Turkey is the USA (60%), Germany (30%). Only 10 countries from the EU have also introduced an embargo. But the United States has not announced yet, only intimidated. (starting with the S-400). For the United States, Turkey’s presence in NATO is more important than their squabbles.

[Alex russia]

A complete stop of the F-35 supplies to Turkey and its withdrawal from the F-35 program, this is only the beginning, during this year a huge list of sanctions by the US Congress against Turkey will be introduced

[Vadim_888]

Moreover, the mess in Turkey is very unprofitable for us. Because, with a mess in a Muslim state, barmaley people quickly run in there, with all that it implies. 

[Alex russia]

So he will send Barmaleev to us in the near future, he is not in the first place, Russia is like a bone in his throat, he terribly interferes with the construction of a new Turan, and our fool is actively helping him in this

[Alex russia]

the more we help our great "friend" Ertogash, the better - the sooner we will send barmaley to all sorts of Chechnya, Dagestan, Tatartsan, Crimea, armed with modern weapons. We also need nuclear weapons for the Turks, Putya has already put his hand in helping the Sultan to realize this dream, training nuclear Turkish specialists in full swing.

[Gennady Fomkin]

The German economy is going through difficult times, but here BAM is over the head like this

[Alex russia]

Thanks to NATO, even though it somehow tries to stop Ertogan's super-ambitious plans to revive the Ottoman Empire with the active support of his "forced" friend Putin :)))

[agoran]

Politics resembles preference. The skill allows you to win with weak cards and vice versa.
The striped people invested in Armenia (the largest number of "diplomats"), the Russians get out, Pashinyan to power.
Well, okay, without a single shot being fired at the Russian base in Nagorno-Karabakh.
Likewise, with Turkey, if minke whales are removed from Inzherlik from nuclear weapons, then this will indeed be a good achievement.

Already introduced after Cyprus, more stringent. It was then that aselan appeared

[Zaurbek]

Let's see the reaction of the Turks. Maybe they will eat ... or maybe not.

Ours or not our "light-faced" from such an alignment of European raw material rogues simply tears farts not childishly, do not forget that Turkey controls the straits, Erdogan may also be offended not childishly and with a simple wave of a handkerchief can bend world trade. Scientific developments of a number of countries predict an increase in the volume of sea transportation in the next two decades due to the start of exploitation of deep-sea bottom resources and an increase in the fleets of national states. Analysis of the statistics of the world energy market shows a gradual increase in the volume of oil transported by ships over 200 meters in length. What will happen to the ports of Varna and Constanta?

Meanwhile, in Chihara, the European Commission signed an investment agreement between the EU and China, Mrs. von der Leyen completed 2020 After over the past year, China canceled investments in the Hong Kong Maidan, continued to suppress caliphate inclinations in Xinjiang, did not get involved in a large-scale conflict with Indian troops, continued to press Taiwan and imposed sanctions on Australia for a snack, the EU nevertheless signed a deal with China. Thus, the EU publicly spat in the face of the US and UK. You want to eat).
