Blinken stresses ‘continued coordination’ after meeting with Türkiye’s Foreign Minister
ISTANBUL (AA) – US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that he looked forward to “continued coordination” with Türkiye on various issues, following a meeting with Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu in Washington.
Noting that they discussed many important issues as part of the US-Türkiye Strategic Mechanism, Blinken said on Twitter: “I look forward to continued coordination on @NATO’s response to Russia’s unprovoked war against Ukraine, Syria, and other challenges.”
He also posted photos taken during the meeting.
On Wednesday, Blinken and Cavusoglu met as part of the Türkiye-US Strategic Mechanism.
The mechanism was launched last April following a meeting between Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his US counterpart Joe Biden on the sidelines of the G-20 summit in Rome.
