ISTANBUL 

Turkiye's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan received the foreign ministers of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Poland and Romania in Istanbul on Friday. 

UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan’s visit to Turkiye comes as another step in the two countries’ ongoing efforts to revitalize ties and to end a feud that has long defined geopolitics in the Middle East and North Africa.

Al Nahyan also held talks with Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu.

Erdogan held a joint meeting with Romanian Foreign Minister Bogdan Aurescu and Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau, who were in Istanbul for a trilateral meeting of the top diplomats of Turkiye, Poland and Romania.

All the meetings took place at the Dolmabahce Palace in Istanbul.
