Türkiye signed over $50 billion worth of deals during the recent visit of
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in July. How do you see this
development to promote bilateral relations?

During President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's recent visit in July, Türkiye has
successfully secured deals valued at over $50 billion. This development has
significantly enhanced bilateral relations between Türkiye and the UAE,
elevating their partnership to the level of strategic importance. Notably, the
establishment of the High Level Strategic Council, to be jointly led by the two
Presidents, marks a pivotal step in strengthening the relationship between the
two countries.

Both nations have worked closely and diligently during the preparatory phase
of these agreements. We have identified mutually beneficial investment
opportunities in priority sectors and signed agreements in various fields such
as export financing, earthquake bonds, energy, defense, infrastructure,
technology, and banking.
