Libyan Parliament Eyes Com't to 'Study' Maritime Deal with Turkey - tovima.com

Turkish 'charm attack' aimed at Gen. Khalifa Haftar's east Libya stronghold raises regional attention, with Athens' interest piqued over possible change in the stance vis-a-vis the illegal Turkish-Libyan maritime deal

www.tovima.com

Haftar sets up a technical commitee to study the Turkey-Libya EEZ deal.

That means that East-Libya will recognize it.

The tiny Greek Foreign Ministry is in panic and plans a visit to East-Libya.

I thought you guys considered Haftar a despicable dictator and didn't like him

I thought you guys considered Haftar a despicable dictator and didn't like him

I still dont like him.

But he has 2 sons and when they both visited Turkey a couple of months ago, i knew the Turkish FM was cooking something.

+6 x MILGEM

No,but they are trying to build two with the help of Russia.

6 SSN would be an impressive threat.... Specially if they mainly operate in mediteranean sea.
But it is very costly, and long to fine tune then produce from scratch. So wait and see (wait and sea).

Turkiye has a plan to build 2 more Nuclear Power Plant after AKKUYU

Nuclear Submarine vision : Escort Aircraft Carrier

Because Aircraft Carriers must travel at high speed, the only platform capable of escorting them is a nuclear-powered Submarine. This is another technical explanation for Turkiye's focus on NUKDEN nuclear Submarine project




btw Australia has received Nuclear Submarine technology transfers from the US and the UK through the AUKUS agreement. Brazil has a similar partnership with France

The possibility of Turkiye evaluating similar models is on the table.

Turkey's pharaonic projects will eventually destroy their economy. They dream of at least 1 or 2 bigger aicraft carriers,8 destroyers,6 nuclear submarines and hundreds of 5th generation fighter jets,complimented by Eurofighter and upgraded F-16s. That will sink their budget.

as of 2025 , Turkiye has $1,4 trillion of GDP

The new NATO agreement will require Countries to increase their spending to 5% of GDP by 2035

in 2035 , Turkiye will have over $2 trillion of GDP ... that means , annually $100 billion defense budget by 2035

Australia is a 5 eyes member. It helps ! (but not to reduce the bill....)

Brazil agreement is only about the hull. The reactor has to be brazilian.... and no news about it for years.
