Turkish President Attends Trump's Reception for World Leaders in New York
Recep Tayyip Erdogan joined a closed-door event hosted by the US president during UN General Assembly week, according to Anadolu Agency.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan attended a closed-door reception hosted by US President Donald Trump for world leaders in New York, according to Anadolu Agency.
The event took place amid the high-level week of the United Nations General Assembly, when numerous heads of state and government are in the city and often participate in sideline gatherings hosted by the host country or other nations. Details on the guest list, agenda or specific discussions at the reception were not disclosed, consistent with the closed-door nature of the event.
Erdogan's attendance continues a pattern of Turkish engagement with US leadership during major multilateral gatherings, reflecting the ongoing, if at times complicated, relationship between Ankara and Washington as NATO allies. The two leaders have held various forms of contact in recent years on issues ranging from regional security to trade.
Neither the Turkish presidency nor the White House has released a detailed readout of the reception. Further engagements between the two governments may be reported as General Assembly week continues.
