Italy’s top diplomat to visit Turkey on Wednesday
Turkish-Italian relations, Turkey’s EU accession process, and fight against COVID-19 to be discussed during visit.
Italy’s top diplomat will pay a visit to Turkey this Wednesday at the invitation of Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu, according to the Turkish Foreign Ministry.
Cavusoglu and Luigi Di Maio will discuss Turkish-Italian relations, Turkey’s EU accession process, and the fight against COVID-19, said the ministry on Monday.
The talks will also cover current regional and international issues, it added.
Di Maio will be one of the first foreign ministers to visit Turkish soil since the coronavirus pandemic hit Europe and nearby regions several months ago, resulting in most foreign contacts being held via video link.
