A U.S. delegation led by the commerce secretary will visit Turkey in September, said the Turkish trade minister on Monday on Twitter.

Axar.az reports citing Anadolu Agency.

Underlining that they had a “fruitful conversation” with Wilbur Ross on the phone, Ruhsar Pekcan said: “During that conversation we have reached a consensus about Secretary's visit to Turkey with a delegation of business people at the first half of September.”

“On the occasion of that visit, we’ll be holding a series of meetings with the participation of business people from both countries and consider our sectoral studies together,” Pekcan said.

Pekcan underlined that this visit will bring two countries' business communities together and it is a concrete demonstration of Turkey's willingness.

"It will be an important step on the way to boost our bilateral trade relations,” she added.
