Finland may be reconsidering its decision imposed in 2019 not to sell arms to Turkiye to speed up its NATO application process.
Unlike the 28 other NATO member states, Turkiye and Hungary have not ratified Finland and Sweden membership applications.
After he visited Turkiye last week, Defence Minister Antti Kaikkonen (Centre) was cautiously optimistic, saying that ”at least we have not moved backwards in solving the issue”.
In 2018, before the embargo was imposed, Finland’s arms exports to Turkiye amounted to around €17 million.
