Diplomatic talks between Türkiye and Greece continue to progress this month with a series of key meetings in Athens, signaling ongoing efforts to strengthen bilateral relations.

Following a "positive agenda" meeting, the two countries delegations are set to engage in a "political dialogue" session today.

Meetings on positive agenda, political dialogue

The discussions between Turkish and Greek representatives are part of an ongoing series aimed at fostering cooperation and mutual understanding.

On Dec. 2-3, Türkiye and Greece held "positive agenda" and "political dialogue" meetings, with both focused on enhancing bilateral ties in areas ranging from economic cooperation to regional stability.

Türkiye's Deputy Foreign Minister Ambassador Mehmet Kemal Bozay is leading the Turkish delegation at both meetings.

The positive agenda talks primarily revolved around fostering cooperation, with a focus on constructive dialogue. The next session, dedicated to political dialogue, is scheduled for today.
