Turkish President Tayyip Erdoğan on Tuesday called for an unconditional end to defence trade restrictions among NATO allies and expressed Türkiye’s interest in hosting the alliance’s 2026 summit.
Ahead of his departure to The Hague for the NATO summit, President Tayyip Erdoğan told reporters in Ankara that defence trade limitations between NATO members should be lifted entirely.
“There should be no conditions attached to defence trade between NATO allies,” Erdoğan said, underscoring Türkiye’s long-standing concerns over restrictions imposed by some alliance members.
He also announced that Türkiye was officially seeking to host the NATO summit in 2026.
Erdoğan added that Ankara was preparing new initiatives to help advance peace talks between Russia and Ukraine and welcomed the newly brokered ceasefire between Iran and Israel.
Türkiye has sought to play a mediating role in regional conflicts and remains an active voice in efforts to reduce tensions in both Europe and the Middle East.
