ANKARA (Reuters) - Turkey's exports to Russia in February fell 33% year on year to $670 million, trade ministry data showed on Saturday.
That was down from $1.1 billion in February 2023.
Imports from Russia fell 36.65% to $1.3 billion from $2 billion a year earlier.
A U.S. threat to impose sanctions on financial firms doing business with Russia has chilled Turkish-Russian trade, disrupting or slowing some payments for both imported oil and Turkish exports, Reuters reported this week.
