Mozambique has for the first time an ambassador to represent the country in Turkey, the government said on Friday, noting that the measure is a sign of approximation between the two countries.
“This is happening at a time when bilateral relations are showing remarkable growth,” according to a note from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation (Minec).
Ambassador César Francisco de Gouveia Júnior presented credential letters to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday and the diplomat took up his duties (with residence in Rome).
The ceremony served to express the Mozambican ambassador’s wish to strengthen cooperation between the two countries, while the Turkish president expressed the desire to continue leveraging Mozambique-Turkey cooperation, the Minec’s note said.
Erdogan particularly elected the areas of infrastructure construction, pharmaceutical industry, textile industry, agriculture and agro-industry, in addition to the willingness of Turkish entrepreneurs to increase their investments in Mozambique”.
He also renewed the invitation for Mozambique to participate in the forum on diversified cooperation between Turkey and African countries to be held in Istanbul on 20 April.
