According to TEB economist Cakir, even though about one-third of Turkey's exports go to the Middle East and North Africa, the instability is unlikely to hit Turkey's economy too hard since the countries currently going through turmoil, such as Libya and Egypt only account for 5% of Turkey's total exports.
Prema rečima ekonomiste TEB-a Čakira, iako jedna trećina turskog izvoza odlazi na Bliski istok i Severnu Afriku, malo je verovatno da će nestabilnost drastično pogoditi tursku ekonomiju, pošto u zemlje u kojima trenutno besne nemiri, kao što su Libija i Egipat, odlazi tek pet odsto ukupnog turskog izvoza.
