Al-Mangoush is paying a one-day visit to Türkiye to meet Fidan to discuss all aspects of bilateral relations and current regional and global developments, according to a Turkish Foreign Ministry statement on Tuesday.

Türkiye has deep-rooted relations with the Libyan people. Due to its historical and cultural ties, Türkiye attaches the utmost importance to the security and welfare of the Libyan people.
