Germany Approves Sale of 40 Eurofighter Jets to Turkey
Israa Farhan Germany has agreed to supply Turkey with 40 Eurofighter Typhoon jets, with strict conditions ensuring they are used solely within NATO obligations and not against any fellow alliance member. According to Der Spiegel, the German Federal Security Council has approved Ankara's request, originally submitted in March 2023, to acquire the advanced fighter jets. The aircraft will be primarily manufactured in the United Kingdom, with key components sourced from Germany. The decision marks a shift in policy under the new government led by Chancellor Friedrich Merz. In June, Handelsblatt reported that Berlin was preparing to lift the previous export ban imposed during former Chancellor Olaf Scholz's term. That ban had been enforced in response to Turkey's arrest of Istanbul's suspended mayor, Ekrem İmamoğlu, a prominent figure in the opposition Republican People's Party. The German approval reportedly comes with assurances from Ankara that the Eurofighter jets will not be used in conflict with other NATO members, particularly in light of historic tensions with Greece. Both Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, as well as the UK government, were informed of Berlin's conditional greenlight. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks

Egypt's Non-Oil Trade Deficit Narrows as Exports Surge in Q1 2025: Cabinet Report
Ahmed Emam The Information and Decision Support Center (IDSC) of Egypt's Cabinet has released the 17th edition of its quarterly report on non-oil merchandise exports, offering an in-depth analysis of Egypt's non-oil trade balance for the period spanning Q1 2024 to Q1 2025. According to the report, Egypt's non-oil trade deficit shrank to $5.6 billion in the first quarter of 2025, down from $6.4 billion in Q1 2024—marking a 12.5% decrease. The improvement is attributed to a significant rise in non-oil merchandise exports, which outpaced the growth in imports. Egypt's non-oil exports climbed to $13 billion during Q1 2025, up from $9.7 billion in the same quarter last year, reflecting a robust year-on-year growth of 34%. Meanwhile, non-oil imports increased to $18.6 billion from $16.1 billion, representing a 15.5% rise over the same period. The report also highlighted quarter-on-quarter progress. Non-oil exports in Q1 2025 grew by 17.1% compared to Q4 2024, when export value stood at $11.1 billion. Among Egypt's top export groups, 'Natural or Cultured Pearls and Precious Stones' led in value, reaching approximately $2.9 billion in Q1 2025—a dramatic surge from $305.3 million in Q1 2024. This group alone accounted for 22.4% of Egypt's total non-oil exports, up from just 3.1% a year earlier, making it the only group among the top ten export categories to increase its relative weight. In contrast, several other major export categories saw a decline in their export share. These included: >> Edible fruits and nuts (from 8.9% to 6.6%) >> Iron and steel (from 5.3% to 3.3%) >> lPlastics and plastic products (from 6.6% to 4.8%) >> Vegetables and edible roots and tubers (from 7.1% to 5.4%) The report also includes an analysis of Egypt's trade balances with key global partners, though further details were not disclosed in the summary. This latest edition underscores Egypt's improving trade performance and diversification of its export base—driven notably by a surge in precious stones and jewelry exports—despite global economic headwinds. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks
