Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is their assessment of the present state of relations between the United Kingdom and Turkey.
The UK and Turkey enjoy a strong bilateral relationship, underpinned by the 2010 Strategic Partnership agreement. Turkey is a key regional power, a NATO ally and a valued security partner. The UK remains a strong supporter of Turkey’s EU accession process. We look forward to continuing to develop relations with a new Turkish government following the parliamentary elections of 7 June.
