President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan shared a message in response to a social media post by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif of Pakistan, in which he tagged him.
President Erdoğan’s post began with “My dear brother” as he addressed Prime Minister Sharif of Pakistan and included the following statements:
“Türkiye-Pakistan brotherhood, which only a few nations in the world are fortunate to have, is one of the finest examples of true friendship.
We, as Türkiye, place great importance on Pakistan's peace, prosperity, and stability.
We highly appreciate the prudent, patient policy of the Pakistani state, which prioritises dialogue and reconciliation in resolving conflicts.
We will remain by your side in good and bad times, as we have done in the past.
I extend my heartfelt greetings to you and the friendly and brotherly people of Pakistan.
Pakistan, Türkiye dosti zindabad!” (Long live Pakistan-Türkiye friendship!)
