Turkey, pursuing its own interests, prevented the West from completely isolating the Russian economy. On Friday, August 12, writes Bloomberg.
According to the publication, in the first half of the year, the export of Turkish goods to Russia reached the maximum in the last eight years.
The bonanza is good news for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who is looking to boost exports in what he calls a “new economic model,” the story said.
However, as stated, this state of affairs “disappoints” Turkey’s NATO allies – the United States and European countries – as they “tried to act as a united front to isolate the Russian economy through of punishments.”
Recall that on August 5, Erdogan and the President of Russia Vladimir Putin held talks in Sochi, where the parties agreed to begin partial payments in rubles for gas supplies of Russia in Turkey.
Shortly thereafter, the European Union began talking about the possibility of imposing sanctions against Ankara for its cooperation with Moscow.
