Turkish MoD Does Not Take Eurofighter Veto Seriously TurDef
Turkish defence officials assert that Germany's declared resistance to Eurofighter Typhoon transfers to Turkiye has no impact on the present acquisition talks.
Reports that Germany is stopping Turkiye from buying more than 30 Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets have been dismissed by the Turkish Ministry of National Defence (MoD).
Reportedly driven by human rights and democratic backsliding worries, the problem has arisen against increasing political tension between Berlin and Ankara. German media have linked the choice to Ekrem İmamoğlu, the opposition leader and present mayor of Istanbul.
German outlet “Handelsblatt” reported that the coalition government of the Social Democrats and the Greens had decided to halt the sale due to Türkiye’s domestic political climate. The paper noted that the decision came during the outgoing administration’s final days in office. The German government has not denied the report.
