Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu arrived evening on Tuesday in the Omani capital Muscat as part of his official visit to the Gulf country.

“In friendly and brotherly Oman for the second stop of our visits to the Gulf,” Cavusoglu tweeted.

During a three-day Gulf tour, Cavusoglu visited early on Tuesday the state of Kuwait, where he met with high-profile Kuwaiti officials, including the Kuwaiti Emir Sheikh Nawaf Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah and the Crown Prince Sheikh Mishal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah.

Later, the Turkish top diplomat is expected to arrive in the Qatari capital Doha as a third leg of the tour.

According to a Monday statement by the Turkish Foreign Ministry, Cavusoglu "will hold talks with his counterparts and other high-level authorities" on the occasion of these visits.

"During these meetings, various aspects of our bilateral relations will be reviewed and views on current regional and international issues will be exchanged," the statement read.

Cavusoglu is also scheduled to meet with Turkish businesspeople operating in those countries.
