Türkiye has informed Canada that it will participate in the Defense Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB) as a founding member, a report said on Monday
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said at a NATO summit in Ankara last week that nine countries, including Türkiye, had committed to the bank, in what was seen as a boost for the multilateral drive to help rearm allied nations.
Defense Ministry sources said over the weekend that Türkiye was still evaluating possible participation.
"Türkiye has informed Canada that it will participate in the bank," a Turkish official told Reuters on Monday.
According to Carney's statement last week, Albania, Belgium, Greece, Latvia, Luxembourg, Romania, Türkiye and Ukraine had all pledged their support to the bank, which will be based in Canada.
