Turkey’s drone program and its war propaganda on social media

Expert Aaron Stein explores Turkey’s drone program, highlighting how Ankara has pioneered drone use for the social media age. This “war propaganda” has led to a narrative about the effectiveness of Turkish drones, even driving international interest in arms sales from countries like Poland and Ukraine.
