Özet:

There are very different views on the impact of international migration movements on the country’s economies. Some views argue that migration affects the economies of the immigrant countries, while others argue that migration affects the economies of the immigrant countries in a positive way. However, the general blood is that migrants have information about their homeland and the country they are, and that it affects the foreign trade movements between the country they are and the country they are. In national and international literature, this is confirmed. However, there is no study on potential markets yet. In order to test the validity of this situation, a study is conducted to determine the direction of this effect, if it affects the volume of trade between these countries and Turkey, the immigrants of the Republic of Turkey in 20 countries determined from the regions of Central Asia, the Middle East and Africa. The study uses an extended drawing model based on the panel data set for the period 2004-2013. In the study, the external trade in general and the components were modeled separately to study the impact of the quantity of immigrants. According to the results of the study, migration from Turkey to the relevant countries has a positive impact on Turkey’s imports.
