Bağcıoğlu, who strongly opposed the agreement says:
Taking into account the timing of putting national projects into practice such as İ Class frigate and Hisar Class open sea patrol vessel, the decision to purchase Type-23 or any foreign vessel will be a non cost-efficient decision as well as a defamation, in the least, to our national defense industry and a wasted resource for Turkish Naval Forces.
