The Turkish foreign minister and EU foreign policy chief are scheduled to have a bilateral meeting in Antalya, southern Turkey on Friday.
During the bilateral meeting, Mevlut Cavusoglu and Josep Borrell will review "all aspects of the relations" ahead of EU summit that will be held on June 24-25, said a statement by the Turkish Foreign Ministry.
"Steps that can be taken to enhance cooperation with the EU on the basis of Turkey’s accession perspective, as well as global and regional developments will also be discussed," it added.
Borrell arrived in Turkey to attend the South-East European Cooperation Process (SEECP) Summit held on Thursday and the Antalya Diplomacy Forum which will be running from June 18 to 20.
The Antalya Diplomacy Forum will be held by the Turkish Foreign Ministry under the theme of "Innovative Diplomacy: New Era, New Approaches".
