He said “the relations don’t change with the changes in the political system and other changes anywhere on the globe. The relations between our two countries are on very strong bonds. It doesn’t matter what happens in the world and what changes there are.”

He said Turkey was a very important country of the region and doing very good in the economics field. Pakistan intends to have exchanges of its products with the Turkish items, he added.

Referring to Turkey’s recent move to sell corvette ships to Pakistan Navy, he said “It is a remarkable thing that we are getting this equipment [corvette ships] from Turkey.” Pakistan and Turkey and Pakistan have been cooperating in this sector for a long time, he added.

He said the two countries would be working very closely to each other in different sectors as well.

The president praised Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TIKA)’s operation in Pakistan. “TIKA was very active in providing help to the affected people in Pakistan [during earthquakes and floods]. TIKA has established many schools in Pakistan and one hospital has also been established by TIKA.”

He said TIKA had been doing a wonderful job to help Pakistani people wherever something was needed.

The president said Pakistan would welcome Turkey if it becomes a member of Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). “I think the organization will get the benefit when Turkey becomes a member of SCO. Strategically, I think Turkey will be helping the SCO in a very nice way.”
