Türkiye export value per kg surges on high-tech, defense revenue: minister

Turkish Trade Minister Omer Bolat reported at Türkiye Innovation Week that export value per kilogram has risen, with high-tech sectors like defense achieving $61.5 per kg, amid 16 years of continuous growth despite global instability. The claim is a government statement, not independently verified, and signals a structural shift toward higher-value exports, which could improve Türkiye's trade balance and economic resilience.
