The EU is scheduled to announce on Wednesday, after seven postponements, its new “Made in Europe” plan. As much as the package has divided the EU and delayed the announcement, concern has spread much more widely, including to Middle Eastern nations such as Turkiye. In recent decades, Turkiye and some other Middle Eastern countries have increasingly become key parts of European supply chains as part of the “nearshoring” economic phenomenon in industries including automobiles, machine manufacturing, steel and defense.
