Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier met in Ankara on Wednesday to discuss regional conflicts, Türkiye-EU relations, and economic cooperation. The talks covered Syria, Gaza, and the war in Ukraine, alongside trade and migration policies.
Türkiye and Germany reaffirmed their commitment to regional stability and diplomatic cooperation as Erdogan and Steinmeier met in Ankara for high-level talks. Their discussions focused on ongoing conflicts, economic relations, and Türkiye’s ties with the European Union.
Erdogan highlighted Türkiye’s efforts in Syria, where a new administration has taken power following the fall of the Bashar al-Assad regime in December. He stressed the need for international support in rebuilding Syria and said he expects Germany to contribute to the country’s reconstruction.
On Gaza, both leaders emphasized the importance of maintaining the January 19 ceasefire and advancing a two-state solution. Steinmeier strongly rejected U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposal to relocate Palestinians from Gaza, calling it “unacceptable under international law.”
The meeting also addressed Türkiye-Germany bilateral relations, with Erdogan underscoring strong trade ties and cooperation on issues like migration, defense, and visa policies. He pushed for further progress in Customs Union reforms and visa liberalization within Türkiye’s relationship with the European Union.
As part of ongoing support for Türkiye’s recovery from the February 6, 2023, earthquakes, Steinmeier announced that Germany will provide a €140 million loan for the construction of earthquake-resistant schools in affected areas.
With Germany preparing for snap elections on February 23, Erdogan extended his best wishes, emphasizing the need for continued diplomatic dialogue and economic cooperation between the two nations.
