Turkey Halts All Trade With Israel by barojana: 4:33pm On May 03 |
Turkey stopped all exports and imports to and from Israel as of Thursday, the Turkish trade ministry said, citing "worsening humanitarian tragedy" in the Palestinian territories. "Export and import transactions related to Israel have been stopped, covering all products," Turkey's trade ministry said in a statement. The country set a condition that it will lift its embargo on Israel if it chooses to provide unlimited humanitarian aid to Gaza, Y-Net reported. "Turkey will strictly and decisively implement these new measures until the Israeli Government allows an uninterrupted and sufficient flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza," the trade ministry said. Turkey's decision comes as unexpected, as Israel has chosen to increase its flow of humanitarian aid into Gaza in recent weeks. The two countries had a trade volume of $6.8 billion in 2023. Conflict over humanitarian aid air-drop Turkey last month imposed trade restrictions on Israel over what it said was Israel's refusal to allow Ankara to take part in aid air-drop operations for Gaza and its offensive on the enclave. Earlier on Thursday, Israel's foreign minister said that Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan was breaking agreements by blocking ports for Israeli imports and exports. "This is how a dictator behaves, disregarding the interests of the Turkish people and businessmen, and ignoring international trade agreements," Israel's Foreign Minister Israel Katz posted on social media platform X. Katz said he instructed the foreign ministry to work to create alternatives for trade with Turkey, focusing on local production and imports from other countries. https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-799629 lalasticlala nplmod myndd44 1 Like |

Interestingly, If Kurdistan did anything close to October 7th to Turkey, Turkey will probably murder every Kurd alive. A very hypocritic nation. 1 Like |
