At the Swiss–Turkish Economic Forum on Sustainable Construction, I emphasised the benefits of collaborating on innovation. During a productive bilateral meeting, 🇹🇷Minister of Trade Ömer Bolat and I discussed the future prospects of our economic relations. 🇨🇭🇹🇷

I received a warm welcome at the Vakko School of Hospitality in Istanbul. Founded in partnership with the École Hôtelière de Lausanne, the school is dedicated to education and training. My inspiring trip to 🇹🇷 concluded with an interesting visit of SGS Türkiye. 🇨🇭🇹🇷

Inspiring insights about the Turkish innovation ecosystem and interactions with Turkish start-ups at the Middle East Technical University (METU) Teknokent Co-Zone. Later in Istanbul, I had a stimulating exchange with the Swiss business community in Türkiye 🇹🇷🇨🇭.

First official meetings during my visit to Türkiye 🇹🇷: The discussions with Mehmet Şimşek, Minister of Treasury & Finance, and Mehmet Fatih Kacır, Minister of Industry and Technology, were inspiring and essential to further strengthening economic and scientific cooperation 🇨🇭🇹🇷.

Türkiye ile İsviçre arasında imzalanan Dostluk Antlaşması’nın 100. yıldönümü vesilesiyle, İsviçre Dışişleri Bakanı Sayın Ignazio Cassis’in ev sahipliğinde düzenlenen programda kültürel diplomasinin en zarif aracı olan sanat ile yüzyıllık dostluğumuzu pekiştirdik.

Siyaset ve ekonominin yanı sıra sanatla, bilimle, eğitimle ve insani değerlerle her geçen gün derinleşen dostluk köprümüzün daha da güçleneceğine yürekten inanıyorum.

Bu anlamlı geceye katkı sunan sanatçılarımıza ve organizasyonu gerçekleştiren İsviçre Büyükelçiliği’ne teşekkür ediyorum.

[Ignazio Cassis @ignaziocassis]

I met with my Turkish counterpart @HakanFidan to discuss the situation in #Syria and the broader #MiddleEast, the urgent need for a ceasefire in #Ukraine & #Gaza, and the European security architecture.

I look forward to enhanced cooperation during #Switzerland’s #OSCE Chairmanship next year.

[Ignazio Cassis @ignaziocassis]

Insightful exchange at the #ADF2025 with @OHR_BiH Christian Schmidt and @luigidimaio, EU Special Representative for the Gulf.

We discussed global #challenges and the crucial role of #diplomacy and #dialogue in resolving conflicts.

[Ignazio Cassis @ignaziocassis]

Fruitful discussions with OSCE Secretary General Feridun Sinirlioğlu at the #AntalyaDiplomacyForum, in view of preparations for Switzerland’s Chairpersonship of the #OSCE in 2026.

We look forward to a constructive cooperation in the year ahead.

[Ignazio Cassis @ignaziocassis]

At the #AntalyaDiplomacyForum, I shared 🇨🇭’s view on the evolving role of #mediation in today’s conflicts.

Trust is the cornerstone of any mediation effort - but building it needs time, credibility and commitment. In today’s volatile landscape, we must invest in diplomacy that brings parties to the table and keeps them there.

🇨🇭 will contribute its long-standing experience and expertise to help resolve conflicts.

[Ignazio Cassis @ignaziocassis]

Just arrived at the @AntalyaDF.

This year’s theme — Reclaiming Diplomacy in a Fragmented World — couldn’t be more timely.

I look forward to exchanging with colleagues on how to strengthen #dialogue, #mediation and #cooperation in today’s complex global context. #ADF2025

Legal aid is key for protection!

With the support of Switzerland, throughout 2024, UNHCR continued to work with NGO partners to enhance refugees' access to justice in Türkiye, so that they can safeguard their rights and receive legal remedies when needed.

Danke 🇨🇭!
