It conforms to world standards. It was top quality, not down from them. We have advantages in craftsmanship here. One in six in Europe costs. We have reflected some of this on the material to quality. A higher quality vehicle was produced at a more affordable price. Turkey's their targets. Turkey their own devices, will produce the brands. We will no longer pay these costs to the world. We will not give 6 trillion 8 to 4 trillion in a wagon. These coins are going abroad. Now the job is reversed. All of these manufacturing will be sold from Turkey. We will not take it from outside. This way you will be strong. Many companies currently Durmazlar in pursuit of cooperation. Everyone wants to sell quality products to the world by cooperating on their own. Other municipalities will use other means, the money will stay in Turkey. The piece will be found instantly when needed. Turkey won a great opportunity. It will also contribute to the reduction of the current account deficit. Political will is required for the revolution. A vehicle will not stay on the road, you will run out of gas, if you strengthen if the power is weak. The important thing is to reveal the will. If the will of revolution was put forward, it would be nice, we would sell it to the world. After the samples there, that job remained there. It started production here. He does not travel easily in Bursa Turkey street .. he saw, he saw the world. We made millions of dollars of profit. In the Ministry, he now set the condition for localization in tenders.
