Germany’s Merz Stresses Need for Strategic Ties in Ankara Visit
(MENAFN) German Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized the need for strengthened international ties to navigate emerging geopolitical challenges during his visit to Ankara on Thursday.
"We are entering a new geopolitical phase. Therefore, we must expand our strategic partnerships," the conservative leader stated in a social media post as his official program commenced.
Highlighting the potential for deeper collaboration with Turkey, he added, "We should make even better use of the enormous potential of our relations with Türkiye. We can build on a strong foundation here."
This marks Merz’s first official trip to Ankara since forming Germany’s new coalition government in May.
Earlier this week, a spokesman for Merz described the visit as highly significant, noting it will offer "an opportunity to discuss key bilateral and international topics, as well as closer cooperation in security and foreign policy."
