Turkish foreign minister welcomes Zambian counterpart

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan hosted his Zambian counterpart Mulambo Haimbe in the capital, Ankara, the Turkish Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday.

"Minister of Foreign Affairs Hakan Fidan hosted Mulambo Haimbe, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Zambia, in Ankara," the ministry wrote on X.

Relations with the southern African nation gained momentum with the opening of the Turkish Embassy in the capital, Lusaka, in 2011, and the opening of the Zambian Embassy in Ankara in 2013.

The first-ever presidential visit from Türkiye was President Erdogan's visit to Zambia in 2018, which further strengthened relations in all areas.
