Exposing Türkiye’s double policy in sanctioning the Zionist regime

According to the international group Tasnim news agency, at the same time as Israel’s crimes continue Against the oppressed people of Gaza, widespread criticism of Turkish people and intellectuals against this regime continues. Many of them believe that it is necessary for the Erdoğan government’s position towards Israel to be more serious than this. In the meantime, the issue of exporting goods from Turkey to Israel has also been criticized.

One ​​of the famous economic commentators in Turkey, by presenting clear statistics on the amount of goods exported to Israel

Ebrahim Kavechi is the name of the commentator who, by presenting the export statistics, shows that contrary to the harsh words of the Ankara authorities, which is beneficial in terms of propaganda and It has domestic consumption, trade with Israel has not stopped but has increased significantly.

Tel Aviv is the largest customer of Turkish steel

The number of victims in Gaza is increasing due to Israeli brutality. However, not only in the meeting of 57 Islamic countries, no deterrent sanctions decision was taken, Turkey’s positions also remained at the level of harsh rhetoric. He put on the agenda against crimes against humanity, but the last thing he did was that Coca-Cola and Nescafe were removed from the menu of the parliament cafe and restaurant. However, the strategic sale of Turkish steel to Israel continues. 1402/07/28/1402072811515042328605034.jpg”/>

many experts believe that the economic embargo on Israel is a real necessity. They remind that it is necessary to stop the export of strategic goods to Israel as soon as possible.

I don’t know if you know but bad Don’t you know that the export of Turkish steel to Israel is the most important part of this deal and we send 6 billion dollars of steel to Israel.

In addition to steel, it is necessary to cut ties with Israel in the oil and gas engineering industries as well. It is necessary to stop cooperation with Tel Aviv in the fields of energy and oil and gas lines.

Let us answer an important question: Can Israel be brought to its knees by just banning Coca-Cola? take off No! But this issue has two important aspects. First, part of this story has symbolic and cultural value. But the second aspect, which I believe is much more important, is to think beyond things like soda and coca-cola.

Let me explain, last week the streets of London were again Supporters of the oppressed Palestinian nation. The demonstration is said to be the most crowded since 2003.

Official figures say 300,000, but independent observers say nearly a million took to the streets. Of course, this type of protest did not happen only in London, and especially in the developed countries of the world, in cities such as Brussels, Melbourne, Paris, and even in the city of Haifa, Israel, we saw that everyone chanted against Netanyahu.

But only one rally was held in Turkey, which was completely partisan and was held without inviting the opposition! Why aren’t our streets in Turkey filled with protesters every weekend against oppressive Israel? That too, in a situation where most of our people are anti-Netanyahu and Israel?

Is it enough to organize a party meeting and ban soft drinks and hamburgers? Is this all the Erdogan government can do? Akparty media published so much news about this that it is as if we are bringing Israel to its knees by not drinking Coca-Cola and coffee and not eating hamburgers! But on the other hand, we send several strategic goods to Israel!

The irony is that it was Recep Tayyip Erdogan himself who opened the Kola factory in Turkey. Cola and Hamburger companies in Turkey were both traded as public companies on the Istanbul Stock Exchange. But let me tell you what we are selling to Israel. /22/1402082210495874928759234.jpg”/>

According to the report of Turkish Exporters Forum – TIM, Turkey exports goods to Israel at the same level as Germany and is after China and America. In other words, we and Germany are the third country in the world in supplying Israel’s needs.

TIM data says that in 2022 we sold $1.192 billion of iron and steel to Israel. . After that, motor vehicles came in at $563 million, and plastics and its products are in third place at $512 million.

Look! According to TÜİK foreign trade data, we sell $450 million worth of goods to Israel per month based on the average of the last 6 months. That means 5.4 billion dollars per year.

In fact, our exports have increased to 7 billion dollars in recent years. From January to October last year, we sold $5.568 billion worth of goods to Israel. ($556 million monthly average).

Turkey’s Trade Minister Omer Polad said that trade with Israel decreased after October 7. Yes, there is a temporary contraction, but this has nothing to do with the October 7 operation and such is the nature of Turkish export behavior at this time of year. In October, our sales to Israel fell by -28.9%. But at the same time, our exports to Cameroon decreased by -31.4%, to Qatar by -60.6% and to Jamaica by -46.1%. What exactly do we do? Is boycotting Coca-Cola or boycotting Hamburger King enough? no These are Turkish companies that operate with franchises. Have there been any restrictions on the sale of strategic products to Israel, especially products used in the manufacture of bombs?
