Erdoğan not happy with India-Middle East-Europe Corridor

[Foinikas]

It's an exaggerated claim. We easily adapt to the situation. Moreover, if the issue is large-volume trade, no land route can replace the sea route.

Exactly. Nowadays,the sea routes are faster and easier and the volume of goods transported is way bigger than land.

O Erdogan, so much angst over vaporware. BTW, how is the Orient Express doing?

Erdogan is always angry when Turkey is not included somewhere. He always goes like "How dare they not include Turkey in that plan? They should know,they can't do anything without Turkey!" It's like a superiority complex. He wants Turkey to be the center of attention in the region. Greece-Egypt-Cyprus-Israel want to make a gas pipeline,he threatens with war: "They should know that any such deal cannot exclude Turkey!". He still thinks as if it's the old Ottoman Empire and the West and East have to trade through Turkey.

Losers with wet dreams
even USA doesnt support EASTMED pipeline project which is dead



-- ISTANBUL Air Port is a hub of world aviation

-- Turkiye at key role for China's OBOR Project

And Turkiye is already energy hub to Europe from Russia and Azerbaijan ....and soon Turkmenistan which has the 4th biggest gas reserves in the world

Israel buys oil from Iraq through Turkiye

Israel has the best option to sell natural gas to Europe .... thats Turkiye ,, but not Greece

This is not just an alternative for Suez. It is a corridor optimised for the benefit of the participating countries. The route you are suggesting would not help Saudi and UAE in any way and also be longer and more expensive. Also, trucks vs trains /ships ?

Even the Pakistani generals have stopped talking about CPEC. Maybe China itself has decided to cut its losses and abandon CPEC.

The current situation on Western border of Pakistan, and the TTP do make the case for it.

It all depends on what sort of action, the Establishment as its called in Pakistan takes against these groups. Given the precarious situation of economy, the Establishment itself isn't in a situation to carry out a protracted engagement with TTP.

The TTP having changed their tactics of no more engaging civilian targets, and going for combatant targets provide a different dilemma given the Establishment's lowest image amongst the public since the independence. Any protracted engagement militarily needs heavy influx of funds, so we will have to see how this goes in future.

We buy from Azerbaijan, not Iraq.

You think we are going to let you control our gas exports? Turkey, although it has ties with Israel, is a huge critic of Israel. We won't give you the option to just shut down our gas exports every time we bomb Gaza.

Even if it's going to take years longer, we would build a pipeline through Cyprus and Greece. Meanwhile, we use ships to sell our gas.

Pathetic Indians .. Your useless India is nothing in world wide trade

and Your corridor is worthless with useless countries who produce nothing ..... so funny

-- India produce almost nothing .. no any world wide brand

-- S.Arabia , The UAE , Jordon , Greece and Israel produce nothing




REAL TRADE CORRIDOR

China is economic super power with export rate of $3,7 trillion to compare with India ( only $767 billion )


China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) referred to as the New Silk Road, is the most ambitious infrastructure projects ever conceived........and launched in 2013 .... ( $1 trillion )

originally devised to link East Asia and Europe through physical infrastructure.



Turkiye and Turkic World are at a key position in the Belt and Road initiative project of China


Middle Corridor through Turkiye and Turkic World = 7.000 km ( 10-15 days )

Northen Corridor through Russia = 10.000 km ( 15-20 days )

Ocean Route : 20.000 km ( 45-60 days )

View attachment 953238


Keep dreaming with useless India ,,, lol

Turkiye is at a key position in the Belt and Road initiative project of China

and China doesnt care about American puppets India,S.Arabia,Jordan,Israel,Greece route

Out of 767 billion 40 percent is service

Indian merchandise export is not even 400 billion which is even lower then that of Hong Kong.

Total merchandise export to eu countries is barely 50 billion lol

Very feasible trade route lmao

Turkiye is an energy hub in the region ... and Turkiye can not cut Israeli gas exports to Europe

there will be international agreements
In fact, a natural gas pipeline agreement between Israel and Turkiye , that would make the two countries strategic partners.

Even if it's going to take years longer, we would build a pipeline through Cyprus and Greece. Meanwhile, we use ships to sell our gas.

EASTMED project is a dream that won't come true without Turkiye

Israel can only use Ships for gas export
but this will increase the cost and Israel will not be able to make much profit.
Israel doesnt have huge gas reserves

Instead of going through the suez canal this corridor will take days longer, be more expensive, and end up in a Chinese owned port anyway.

This is just a Saudi attempt to make global trade revovle around them and Pajeets going "Phul Sapport saar"

Replace Saudis with Pakistan you have CPEC

 

[kaykay]

A project where a ship leaving the Mumbai port goes directly to the Pireus port would make more sense than this.
You don't need to know rocket science to predict that the logistics cost of a product passing through 4 ports and a railway will increase x4 times. This project will never come into reality because it will make a standard Indian product more expensive than a Chinese product.

It takes 22 days to go to Europe from Mumbai via suez canal mainly due to traffic or congestion there which is going to be worse in the future. Same is expected to cut down by 30-40% via this route.
