Turkey is a NATO ally and a valued partner for the UK. Foreign and Commonwealth Office Ministers and officials have regular discussions with Turkish counterparts covering a wide range of issues. On 14 August 2015, I met Volkan Bozkır, the then Turkish Minister for EU Affairs and Chief Negotiator. We discussed the political and security situation in Turkey and the region.
