Turkish delegation to visit Egypt for ‘normalisation’ talks

The visit in May will be followed by a meeting between the Egyptian and Turkish foreign ministers, says Turkish FM.

A Turkish delegation will visit Egypt next month as part of Ankara’s efforts to mend ties with Cairo after the two countries snapped diplomatic relations in 2013, the foreign minister said on Thursday. “Egypt invited a delegation from Turkey. The delegation will go in early May,” Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told the private NTV broadcaster. “We will discuss openly how to normalise relations.”
