ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “We have a concrete and ambitious goal to achieve together in the next five years: to reach the 40 billion trade exchange and 25 billion reciprocal direct investment by 2030”. This is the direction indicated by the Minister of Enterprises and Made in Italy, Adolfo Urso, speaking in Ankara at the first meeting of the Italian-Turkey Ministerial Task Force for Industrial Cooperation (Committee STI3), co-chaired by the Minister of Industry and Technology of the Republic of Turkey, Mehmet Fatih Kacir, and concluded with the signing of the joint declaration between the two countries.
An understanding that represents “a qualitative leap in relations between the two countries”, as Minister Urso pointed out, that aims to strengthen structurally the industrial partnerships between Italy and Turkey, leveraging an increasingly advanced production integration and reciprocal investment in strategic sectors.
“There are already many Italian companies rooted for years in Turkey and Turkish companies that today invest successfully in Italy in the most advanced sectors, helping to strengthen an increasingly solid production integration between the two countries,” said Urso.
“We can now build a single technological, scientific and industrial basin between Italy and Turkey, to strengthen our chains and make them more competitive,” the minister added.
Today’s meeting also takes on a significant significance in the current international context, marked by tensions in the Gulf and the Iranian crisis. “We wanted to confirm this meeting just to give a signal to our peoples, our enterprises and other countries of the area: today more than ever it is necessary to cooperate for development, well-being, peace and stability,” said Urso, pointing out that it is “an important and timely signal for a country that, like others in the area, suffers from the conflict in the Persian Gulf and to which we must trust”.
