Recep Tayyip Erdogan dreams of a Spanish aircraft carrier and submarine at the time of the υπο Spanish withdrawal of the Turkish pound. At the same time, the Turkish president is pulling the strings with the US on the issue of S-400…
“We agreed with Russia on the joint production of spare parts for the S-400, but … I can not tell you details because we agreed with Vladimir Putin not to say more,” Erdogan said provocatively on Wednesday.
“We will build both aircraft carriers and submarines with the Spaniards,” the Turkish president said during a press conference in Ankara with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, in addition to building a helicopter carrier.
It is noted that in view of the new German coalition government it seems that there are problems in the supply of German submarines, as the issue of human rights is raised.
And all this, at a time when the Turkish pound is collapsing. Today, Wednesday, the Turkish pound depreciated by 3%, while since the beginning of the year it has depreciated by 38%, says Manolis Kostidis. On Thursday, things are estimated to be worse, with the new reduction of interest rates by the central bank, as Erdogan has “declared war” with high interest rates.
The Turkish president is also said to be promoting a change in the electoral law, by reducing the percentage for his election from 51% to 40% …
However, the State Department on Wednesday once again warned Ankara not to keep the S-400s.
