Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will travel to Warsaw on Thursday to attend an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers, focusing on regional security, hybrid threats, and Türkiye-EU cooperation.
Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan is set to take part in the Gymnich-format meeting in Warsaw at the invitation of the European Union. The informal gathering will bring together foreign ministers from EU member states, as well as candidate and potential candidate countries, to discuss key issues in European foreign and security policy.
According to Türkiye's Foreign Ministry, Hakan Fidan is expected to meet with EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas and his counterparts from across Europe. His participation comes as part of ongoing efforts to revitalize dialogue between Türkiye and the EU, following a similar invitation extended last August—marking the first such engagement in five years.
Key topics on the agenda include boosting resilience to hybrid threats and enhancing strategic coordination between NATO and the EU. Hakan Fidan is expected to emphasize the importance of deeper cooperation on intelligence sharing and countering hybrid risks, including cyber threats and disinformation.
He will also underline that terrorism remains a major driver of instability and that Türkiye’s efforts in combating terrorist groups contribute to the security of the wider region. Ankara expects meaningful support from its partners and allies on this front.
Additionally, Türkiye is set to reiterate its call for more inclusive EU defense initiatives and advocate for the participation of non-EU partners like Türkiye in efforts to build the bloc’s defense industry capacity.
Fidan will also use the opportunity to stress the need for concrete steps in advancing Türkiye-EU relations, including the modernization of the Customs Union, resolving visa issues, and resuming structured dialogue mechanisms.
On the sidelines of the main event, Fidan is scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with several of his European counterparts.
