Turkey breaks export records

The Turkish Exporters' Assembly (TIM) announced that Turkey's export has increased by 10.64 percent to reach 11,887 billion American dollars in October and amounted to 111.38 billion American dollars in the first ten months with an increase by 20.18 percent. Accordingly, Turkey's export has broken a record of all times in its history of Republic on the basis of Octobers. Speaking in the southeastern province of Hakkari, TIM Chairman Mehmet Buyukeksi praised the course of economy in Turkey and defined the measures which were taken as sufficient. Buyukeksi added that Turkey would break a new record with 135 billion American dollars by the end of year and that exporters supported stable exchange rates, because unstable exchange rates prevented them from seeing the future.
