Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says Turkey can never accept anyone’s dictation on the country’s defence industry including from its NATO allies

Turkey rejected the claim, saying the S-400s will not be integrated into NATO and purchasing them was a necessity as it was unable to procure air defence systems from any NATO ally on satisfactory terms.In April 2017, when protracted efforts to buy an air defence system from the US proved futile, Turkey signed a contract with Russia to acquire its state-of-art S-400 missile shield.

"Although we paid a huge amount of money, the F-35 jets have unfortunately not been given to us yet. This is, of course, a very serious mistake the US committed as an ally country in international diplomacy," Erdogan said.in this regard following the transition of the presidency to Joe Biden.Erdogan also said tech giants use "digital dictatorship" to threaten humanity with laws reminiscent of the US' wild west.

The Turkish leader highlighted the importance of data in the digital age, comparing it to gold, oil and iron in the industrial revolution.

So very true.. but you got they're traps already with your covid vaccination!

Precisely!

Do not accept anyone's dictates on your economy. We would never surrender our economy to anyone, and neither should you. Not for the EU, not for the whole world. If anyone wanted control over our economy, they would have to pry it out of our cold dead hands.
