Turkish says automobile, aircraft and aircraft engines, as well as pharmaceutical products and plastic raw materials are set to be the main exports to Turkey from France, the third-largest economy in the European Union and the sixth-largest economy in the world.

The carrier says France has a wide range of products and market diversity, and is a market with high potential for Turkish Cargo.
