Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has announced a suspension of all trade with Israel, valued at $9.5 billion, in response to the ongoing conflict in Gaza. This decision has led to significant disruptions in trade routes, prompting Turkish importers to seek indirect methods to continue trading with Israel. The Turkish Trade Ministry has allowed companies with existing deals to export to Israel via third countries for three months following the trade halt. Despite initial reports suggesting a softening of the trade embargo, Turkish Trade Minister Omer Bolat confirmed that the restrictions remain firmly in place and will continue until a permanent ceasefire is reached in Gaza. This stance has been reiterated by various Turkish government sources, despite conflicting statements from Israel's Foreign Minister claiming that Erdogan had lifted many of the restrictions.
