India's HARD Lesson For Erdogan, Turkey: 'Pick Pak And We Shut Down Turkish Empire'

When Turkish President Erdogan openly backed Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, few expected the biggest fallout to be economic. But India's response went beyond the battlefield. Turkish aviation giant Celebi lost a business built over 17 years in a single day after India revoked its security clearance. The damage did not stop there. Metro contracts involving Turkish firms were cancelled, Turkish Airlines lost a key partnership, consumer boycotts spread across India, and major projects came under review. Was Ankara's Pakistan gamble worth the cost? This report examines how geopolitics collided with economics, why Turkish companies became collateral damage, and whether Erdogan underestimated the power of the world's fastest-growing major economy. #india #turkey #erdogan #pakistan #operationsindoor #geopolitics #indiapakistan #turkishfirms #celebi #turkishairlines #economy #tradewar #timesaxis #toi AXIS is where the world is explained through India’s lens. For decades, global narratives have been shaped by Western media... told through Washington, London or Beijing. But as India rises as a major economic, military and diplomatic power, why should others define the world for us? Why shouldn’t India shape its own voice, own perspective, and own narrative? That’s where AXIS comes in. We decode global power shifts, wars and conflicts, the India-China rivalry, Pakistan, West Asia, oil shocks, trade battles and neighbourhood politics - with one key question: What does this mean for India and for you? As India rises, so should its share of voice!
