October 29, 2023

Vladimir Putin sent greetings to President of Turkiye Recep Tayyip Erdogan on the centenary of the Turkish Republic.

The message reads, in part:

“Over the past century, your country has overcome numerous challenges, achieving generally recognised success in the economy, social sphere and other sectors. Turkiye is a highly respected country on the global stage, and rightfully so.

Russian-Turkish relations are developing in the spirit of friendship and neighbourliness, which was fully confirmed at our recent meeting in Sochi. The two countries efficiently cooperate in a wide range of areas, with major joint projects implemented on a regular basis. Moscow and Ankara successfully coordinate their efforts to resolve pressing issues on the regional and global agendas.

I am confident that we will continue to consistently expand the scope of bilateral ties for the benefit of our friendly nations, aiming to build a more just and democratic world order.”
