It is to be noted that Turkiye, Iran, Azerbaijan and Tajikistan supported Pakistan’s stance during recent stand off with India following Pahalgam false flag operation.
Earlier on April 22, Prime Minister Shehbaz landed in Turkiye for a two-day visit on the invitation of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, with both sides looking to strengthen bilateral ties.
Pakistan and Turkiye enjoy strong bilateral ties based on shared history, culture, and religion, with close cooperation in defence, trade, and diplomacy. They mutually support each other on issues like Kashmir and Cyprus, strengthening their strategic partnership.
