Turkey-Israel Trade Unaffected by Political Crisis
(Zaman-Turkey) Aydin Albayrak - Economic relations between Turkey and Israel have not been impacted by the political crisis that resulted after the Mavi Marmara incident. In 2011, imports from Israel reached an all-time high of $2 billion, compared to $1.360 billion the previous year, while exports to Israel were $2.4 billion, up from $2 billion in 2010. The only areas of Turkish-Israeli relations badly affected are military cooperation and tourism.
