Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto will pay a working visit to Turkey on June 30, the Turkish Foreign Ministry announced Monday.

During the visit, cooperation in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and bilateral relations, as well as current regional and international developments, including Turkey-EU relations, will be on the agenda.

Enjoying warm relations in every field thanks to bilateral high-level visits and consultation mechanisms, the two countries upgraded ties to a strategic level with a strategic cooperation agreement in 2013. A High-Level Strategic Cooperation Council was also established the same year, co-chaired by Turkey’s president and the Hungarian prime minister, which has gathered once every two years.
