Erdoğan says Eurofighter deal with UK will open door to joint defense projects

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said he believes the Eurofighter deal with the UK will open the door to joint defense projects. Erdoğan added that he sees the Eurofighter Typhoon deal as a new sign of the Türkiye-UK strategic relations.

'It is our collective responsibility to uphold the Gaza ceasefire; the Israeli government must be restrained,' the Turkish president underlined at a joint press conference with UK PM Keir Starmer.

Türkiye congratulates the UK on its decision to recognize the state of Palestine, and views it as a bold step toward a 2-state solution, Erdoğan said in a statement.
