Islamic Countries Peacekeeping Force Examination and Research Board
Turkey, which has had a say in the defense industry until now, has reached the level of competing in the same arena as countries such as the United States, Russia, England, Germany and France, and it is unthinkable that it will not be able to stand out from these countries and have a say in the defense industry by using its geographical position superiority.

ARTICLE 35 OF THE TAF
INTERNAL SERVICE LAW
IN THE NATIONAL DEFENSE COMMISSION OF THE TGNA
