“German Chancellor faces tough decision as Turkish President’s request shakes Eurofighter deal”

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz faces the challenge of addressing Turkey’s new request to purchase Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets. This comes amidst inquiries due to Turkey’s involvement in a gas dispute and aggression in Armenia. Scholz intends to lift the ban to improve Germany’s image and discuss the demands with Turkish officials. The ban is believed to be unrelated to Russia’s defense systems and operations against the PKK. Germany’s official position will support Israel’s right to militarize in gas.
