Türkiye occupies a central place on the agenda of Brussels aimed at building European security architecture independent of the United States.
EU began to search for new ways to strengthen its defense, since the United States after coming to power Donald Trump began to distance himself from European security issues.
Having lost the most important ally, Brussels focused on independent ensuring the security of the continent. This is due to both Washington’s pressure and constant threats from Moscow with another.
Based on this, the European Commission presented the EU militarization plan until 2030 is a white defense book.
Türkiye, which has become part of this platform, has also become part of this platform, which is simultaneously the Candidate country to join the European Union and NATO ally.
In addition, there is a fund worth 150 billion euros entitled “Safety Acts in Europe” (SAFE). Not only member countries can participate in the program, but also candidate countries, which brought out the issue of Turkey’s participation in building a European security structure on EU agenda.
The correspondent of “Anadolo” talked on this subject with the representative of the European commission Thomas Rainier.
“companies based in Europe can take part in the procurement process. It is not necessary to be European if they comply with security standards. The countries are not part of the EU, for example Turkey, can supply up to 35 percent of defense products at a time. For industrial participation, the volume of which exceeds 35 percent, participation in the field of security and defense is required, and then the signing of the partnership agreement,” explained the source Agency.
