Arab League says Arab-Turkish relations improved

CAIRO, Egypt

The head of the Arab League said Wednesday there has been an improvement in Arab-Turkish relations.

Ahmed Aboul-Gheit said, at the end of the 160th session meeting held at the foreign ministers’ level in Cairo, that "the Arab Ministerial Council held previously a group of meetings for the committees concerned with Türkiye, Iran and the Palestinian cause."

"We are monitoring the development of relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia and between Iran and the Arab countries," he said.

Aboul-Gheit also said that "there is an improvement in relations between Türkiye and the Arab countries."

Turkish-Arab relations are witnessing great momentum and broad partnerships, especially with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, in addition to the return of relations with Egypt.
