“We agreed to reenergize our relations in many areas, resume meetings of different mechanisms as well as to resume talks on civil aviation,” Mevlut Cavusoglu told a joint news conference with his Israeli counterpart Yair Lapid in West Jerusalem.
Cavusoglu, who spoke after one-on-one and delegation-level talks, said Turkiye-Israel trade volume surpassed $8 billion last year, and the figures of this year’s first quarter are “very promising.”
“We are determined to increase our trade volume and economic cooperation. It is mutually beneficial,” he said. “Our geographical proximity and complementing economies make Turkiye and Israel natural trade partners.”
Turkey and Israel have decided to continue their bid to normalize their relationship through dialogue and technical contacts, particularly in the areas of economy and trade, the two countries’ foreign ministers have said, adding a new framework is agreed to be established for the future of the bilateral ties.
