ISLAMABAD, JAN 12: Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Monday that Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu will arrive in Pakistan for a two-day official visit.

The two officials will review the entire gamut of bilateral relations and exchange views on regional and international issues.

This is the Turkish foreign minister’s third visit in the last two and a half year and it is part of “regular high-level exchanges between the two countries”.

“The fraternal relations between Pakistan and Turkey are deeply embedded in common faith, culture, and history and underpinned by exceptional mutual trust and respect,” said the foreign office.

Pakistan-Turkey bilateral relations have been institutionalised under the High-Level Strategic Cooperation Council (HLSCC), which is the highest level decision-making forum, providing strategic direction to further boost the partnership, read the statement

The Strategic Economic Framework (SEF), signed at the sixth HLSCC session, has 71 action points for deeper cooperation between the two countries in diverse fields.
