Foreign ministers of Turkey and Pakistan on Wednesday discussed “growing cooperation on regional issues.”
“WE DEEPLY APPRECIATE TURKEY’S UNWAVERING STANCE”
“Always a pleasure to speak to brother @MevlutCavusoglu. Discussed matters of mutual interest with a focus on growing cooperation on regional issues,” Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi wrote on Twitter.
“We deeply appreciate Turkey’s unwavering stance on #IIOJK,” he said, referring to the Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir. “Have invited FM Cavusoglu [to Pakistan] & look forward to hosting him soon,” he added.
Turkish-Pakistani relations gain their strength from history, according to the Turkish Foreign Ministry. “In 2017, the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Turkey and Pakistan was celebrated through several cultural events, which were organized in both countries.”
