As the two-day NATO summit got underway in Ankara on Tuesday, Türkiye's Presidency's Directorate of Communications unveiled an extensive International Media Centre to support over 3,000 journalists covering one of the alliance's most significant gatherings.
As part of the preparations, the Directorate of Communications established the International Media Centre at the Presidential Nation's Library as the operational hub for global press coverage of the July 7-8 NATO summit.
