Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek said Friday that Türkiye and Germany have significant potential to deepen cooperation in key industries and strengthen partnerships in third-country markets.
Şimşek's remarks came after he met with German Economy and Energy Minister Katherina Reiche in Ankara, where the two sides discussed bilateral economic ties, opportunities for closer cooperation and recent geopolitical developments.
Reiche arrived in the Turkish capital for two days to help foster new and deeper business activity in Türkiye. She was accompanied by representatives from the energy, tourism and technology sectors.
In a post on social media following the talks, Şimşek said Türkiye and Germany were "natural strategic partners" at a time when companies and governments worldwide are seeking to diversify supply chains and reduce vulnerabilities.
"There is tremendous scope to expand our cooperation in defense and aerospace, mobility, energy and digital transformation," he noted.
