President Erdoğan spoke at a joint press conference with Sultan of Oman Bin Tariq
Speaking at a joint press conference with Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said of Oman, President Erdoğan said: “This is the first-ever visit at the level of head of state from Oman to Türkiye. Our relations with Oman, with which we have deep-rooted historical and brotherly ties, continue to improve in every area.”
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Sultan Haitham bin Tariq Al Said of Oman held a joint press conference following their tête-à-tête and the meeting between the delegations.
“WE WANT TO FURTHER OUR RELATIONS IN EVERY AREA”
President Erdoğan said: “This is the first-ever visit at the level of head of state from Oman to Türkiye. Our relations with Oman, with which we have deep-rooted historical and brotherly ties, continue to improve in every area. With my treasured brother, we want to further our relations in every area. I would like to thank him once again for the strong solidarity he displayed after the earthquake disaster that took place last year in our country.”
Drawing attention to the 10 documents signed to enhance the cooperation between the two countries in such fields as foreign relations, economy, industry, investment, health, culture, agriculture and husbandry, President Erdoğan noted: “We aim to increase our economic and trade relations to 5 billion dollars at first stage in a way that will reflect our current potential. Our contracting firms have thus far completed projects worth of 7 billion dollars. I, with my august brother, have addressed our firms’ potential contributions to the Oman Vision 2040 as well.”
“TÜRKİYE STANDS READY TO PROVIDE ANY KIND OF SUPPORT FOR THE RESTORATION OF PEACE AND STABILITY”
Stating that they have also thoroughly discussed regional developments, President Erdoğan stressed that Muslim world should form more concrete and more comprehensive cooperation in the face of Israel’s massacres in Palestine and its attacks that threaten regional security.
Voicing his pleasure over the positive outcomes of the negotiations on the ceasefire in Lebanon, President Erdoğan went on to say: “Let me underline once again that Türkiye stands ready to provide any kind of support for the restoration of peace and stability in Lebanon. However, I would also like to point out that we cannot find regional or global peace until an immediate, just and lasting ceasefire is established in Gaza. U.S. President Biden’s statement that they will launch a new initiative for ceasefire in Gaza is a very late but an important step. Since the beginning of these conflicts, we have repeatedly stated that we are ready to do more than what falls to us, be it mediation or guarantorship, for the establishment of a lasting ceasefire.”
