Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan’s statement at the Turkish House in New York, “The engines for KAAN are waiting in the US Congress; their licenses are currently stalled. The engines need to arrive from the US so that the production of the KAANs can begin,” has sparked debate.
As the discussions continue, a post regarding the KAAN came from CHP Chairman Özgür Özel.
Posing in front of the KAAN with a CHP delegation, Özel used the following expressions in his post on his X account:
“The great journey that began in 1973 is full of obstacles and difficulties, but we have full confidence in the Turkish engineer and worker in reaching the critical goal.
Our KAAN draws its strength not from the outside, but from our nation.
Our national pride, the KAAN, is behind us in the photo, and we are behind the KAAN all the way!”
1973’de başlayan büyük yolculuk engeller ve zorluklarla dolu ama kritik hedefe ulaşmada Türk mühendisine ve işçisine güvenimiz tam.

KAAN’ımız gücünü dışarıdan değil, milletimizden almaktadır.
