Ukraine led the list of countries to which T\u00fcrkiye exported more in May compared to the same month a year earlier, with nearly $340 million in volume increase, according to a report on Saturday.<\/p>\n

T\u00fcrkiye’s exports to Ukraine saw the largest increase in May, rising by $339.6 million, while exports to the country exceeded $600 million last month, a report prepared by Anadolu Agency (AA) said.<\/p>\n

The rise in shipments to the country is seen as the economic relations continue to strengthen and build on momentum despite the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war. Increasing Ukrainian demand for T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s industrial and technology products has also played a key role in boosting exports.<\/p>\n

Damage to Ukraine\u2019s energy and infrastructure systems due to the war has particularly increased demand for energy equipment and industrial machinery.<\/p>\n

Accordingly, based on data from the T\u00fcrkiye Exporters Assembly (TIM), Ukraine was the country where T\u00fcrkiye recorded the largest value-based export increase in May.<\/p>\n

It was followed by Slovakia with $120.8 million, Morocco with $98.2 million, Norway with $71.9 million, and Nigeria with $46.5 million.<\/p>\n

In May, T\u00fcrkiye exported $656.6 million worth of goods to Ukraine, $248.1 million to Slovakia, $440.6 million to Morocco, $171.4 million to Norway, and $90.4 million to Nigeria.<\/p>\n

Moreover, last month, T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s top export destinations were Germany with $1.5 billion, the U.S. with $1.2 billion, Italy and the U.K. with $1.1 billion each, and Spain with $994.8 million.<\/p>\n

Chemical sector leads exports to Ukraine<\/strong><\/p>\n

In May, the chemical products and derivatives sector was the leading exporter to Ukraine with $89.1 million.<\/p>\n

It was followed by electrical and electronics with $64.3 million, steel with $52.4 million, the automotive industry with $18.1 million, and machinery and parts with $12.1 million.<\/p>\n

Among sectors, the highest export increase to Ukraine came from the electrical and electronics sector with $19.7 million. It was followed by chemicals with $11.4 million, iron and non-ferrous metals with $1.8 million, air conditioning industry with $808,400, and carpets with $536,900, respectively.<\/p>\n

Overall, the iron and non-ferrous metals sector exported goods totaling $10.5 million to Ukraine, the air conditioning industry $6 million, and the carpet sector $1.3 million.<\/p>\n

From a regional perspective, exports to Ukraine came from Ankara ($398.2 million), Istanbul ($152.2 million), Kocaeli ($19.4 million), Hatay ($17.4 million), and Mersin ($8.6 million).<\/p>\n
