Özet:

Turkey, along with its rooted political and historical ties with Russia, is in an important trade relationship. Turkey’s share in total exports fell to a level of 2.3% in 2000 and 4% in 2010, and 1% in 2016. The share of Russia in imports, which was 7.1 per cent in 2000, rose to 11.6 per cent in 2010. In 2016, 7.6% of the total imports of Turkey were made from Russia. Although the share of Turkey’s total exports is not too high, Russia has a significant share in Turkey’s imports. This shows that Turkey is dependent on Russia. It is already a well-known matter of dependence on Russia, especially in terms of energy.
