Islamabad, Jul 9 (PTI) Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan and Defence Minister Yasir Guler have arrived in Pakistan for discussions with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on matters of mutual interest, including collaboration in the defence industry. The visit started on Wednesday, marking an official engagement.

Radio Pakistan reported that the officials will engage in discussions on key issues of shared interest, underscoring the deep and brotherly ties between Pakistan and Turkiye, which are grounded in a common history, culture, and mutual trust. Sources indicate that in addition to other meetings, Fidan and Guler will engage with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on topics including bilateral relations, regional concerns, and defence industry cooperation.
