ANKARA (Reuters) -Turkey and Germany have high potential in the defence industry and must focus on joint projects, President Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday at a joint press conference with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in Ankara.
“In light of the changing security conditions in Europe, we must leave behind problems in the procurement of defence industry products and focus on joint projects,” Erdogan said.
Merz was making his inaugural visit to Turkey to discuss bilateral relations, foreign policy, and cooperation on economics, migration, and security.
