Turkey's Defense Ministry Denies Involvement in REPKON's US Munitions Sales to Israel
Turkey's Defense Ministry stated it has no knowledge of its contractor REPKON's US subsidiary's involvement in ammunition sales to Israel. The allegations arise from a US State Department notification regarding a $151.8 million munitions sale, implicating Repkon USA as a principal contractor.

Turkey's Defense Ministry denied claims regarding REPKON's US unit, Repkon USA, being involved in munitions sales to Israel. A US State Department notification detailed a $151.8 million sale that included munitions linked to Repkon USA.
The ministry clarified that defense contractors abroad operate under local laws and reiterated that REPKON's operations in Turkey are governed by national regulations on arms production. This scrutiny coincides with reports of increased Israeli imports of Azerbaijani crude via Turkey, raising questions about Turkey's trade policies amid regional conflicts. The ongoing operations of REPKON USA, recently rebranded as Paligen Technologies, signal its growing presence in the US defense sector.
