Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

SUBJECT: GOT PLANNING TO IMPLEMENT CATCH-ALL CONTROLS IN
FALL 2003
REF: A. ANKARA 3503
B. STATE 139759
(U) Classified by Economic Counselor Scot Marciel for reasons
1.5 B and D.
(C) Econoff delivered ref B points urging the GOT to
implement catch-all export controls to Ali Riza Oktay,
Department Head at the Turkish Foreign Trade
Undersecretariat's Exports General Directorate, on June 13.
Oktay acknowledged that Turkey does not now have catch-all
control regulations, but stated that in practice the GOT has
sometimes denied permission to export sensitive items without
regulatory authority to do so. He said that the Turkey
informed other Australia Group members at the recent AG
plenary that it aims to align its regulations in this area
with those of the EU. Turkey plans to implement catch-all
regulations following a briefing by EU experts on this
subject, now scheduled for September.
