"Türkiye is a key partner in a region in turmoil. Our interests converge; keeping trade routes open, energy flowing and supply chains stable. We will continue working closely together on these priorities.
The EU appreciates Türkiye’s efforts to support de-escalation and a diplomatic resolution to the Iran conflict. We also discussed the Eastern Mediterranean and the Cyprus question.
We underlined the importance of EU-Türkiye relations. The EU is ready to support the UN-led process at all stages," von der Leyen stated.
