Türkiye is focused on a fully independent defence industry as the country has reduced its foreign reliance from 80 percent to 20 in the last two decades, according to President Erdogan

In just two decades, Türkiye has made significant strides in its defence industry, reducing its foreign dependency from 80 percent to 20 percent, the country’s president has said.

“We have reduced the foreign dependency in the defence industry from around 80 percent to some 20 percent in such a short time as 20 years. The number of defence projects, which was merely 62 in 2002, has today surpassed 750,” Erdogan said. Erdogan stressed that behind every product developed in the defence industry lies years-long efforts, patience, work and financial power.
