Özet:

Twin explanations are discussed on whether the hypothesis is valid while keeping up to date the discussions on the hypothesis are discussed on two basic views. The study used time series analysis based on data for the period 1996-2017 for Turkey; the Panel data analysis method used data for the period 1996-2017 for EU member countries. For Turkey, the Engle-Granger test has been used to determine the long-term relationship between the budget gap and the car open, and it has been determined that it has a long-term integration relationship.  The Granger Causal Test found no causal relationship between the two variables and the conclusion was that the Ricardo Equality Hypothesis for Turkey was valid. The Pedroni and Kao integration test results for 23 countries of the European Union showed the existence of a long-term relationship between the budget gap and the currency gap; the variables between the currency gap and the budget gap have a causal relationship with the Dumitrescu-Hurlin causal test results.
