Turkey must be included in all of Europe\u2019s defence and security structures, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Monday, a week ahead of a key NATO summit in Ankara.<\/p>\n
His remarks come as Europe seeks to revamp its defences in light of the threat from Russia and the risk of a US pullback from NATO, as the military alliance gears up for a key summit in the Turkish capital on July 7-8.<\/p>\n
At issue is Turkey\u2019s access to the European Union\u2019s 150-billion-euro ($176-billion) Security Action for Europe (SAFE) initiative, a scheme key to strengthening European defence capabilities.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cTurkey\u2019s indispensable contributions to European security are sometimes overlooked,\u201d Erdogan told parliamentary delegates from all 32 NATO member states in Istanbul, saying Turkey wanted \u201cto participate in all defence and security initiatives\u201d on the continent.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe expect your support, lawmakers, for Turkey\u2019s inclusion in the defence and security initiatives announced by the European Union.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although Turkey is technically eligible to access the SAFE initiative, it requires approval from all 27 EU members \u2014 something Greece has threatened to block.<\/p>\n
The Turkish leader also urged NATO to remove all barriers blocking defence industry trade between members of the alliance.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf we want to overcome the challenges we face, we need to remove obstacles to defence industry trade while ensuring a balanced and fair burden-sharing among allies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
