The president of Turkey on Tuesday praised his country’s dialogue with Iran to find possible solutions to problems in their shared region.
“TURKEY IS TRYING TO PUT ITS ECONOMY ON TRACK IN PRODUCTION”
“Dialogue between Turkey and Iran has played a determinant role in resolving many regional problems,” said Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, speaking at the sixth meeting of the Turkey-Iran High-Level Cooperation Council.
“I believe our cooperation will return to its previous levels as the epidemic subsides,” Erdoğan said at the meeting, which was being held via video link and co-chaired by himself and his Iranian counterpart Hassan Rouhani.
On a recent rise in daily coronavirus infections in Turkey, Erdoğan said that the country continued “to keep the epidemic under control,” regardless.
While strengthening the Turkish health system with new hospitals equipped with cutting-edge technology, Turkey is trying to put its economy on track in production, exports, and tourism, Erdoğan said.
Turkey’s coronavirus tally on Monday rose to 281,509, with 1,703 more cases over the past 24 hours, according to Health Minister Fahrettin Koca.
