Minister Akar is on a two-day visit to the UK to reaffirm our two countries’ close cooperation on defence and security as NATO Allies.
Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said:
Turkey is an important NATO Ally and partner for the UK in upholding security in the Mediterranean and Black Sea regions.
I was delighted to welcome Minister Akar to the UK for fruitful discussions on how our nations can build on our strong defence relationship in a range of areas – from NATO exercises and operations to industry co-operation.
