Türkiye's embassy in Djibouti welcomed the meeting between Transport and Infrastructure Minister Abdulkadir Uraloğlu and several Djiboutian ministers on the sidelines of the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31) in Antalya, expressing hope that cooperation between the two countries in transport, logistics and investment would be strengthened.
The Djiboutian delegation included Minister of Environment and Sustainable Development Mohamed Ahmed Awaleh, Minister of Economy and Finance Ilyas Moussa Dawaleh, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources Djamé Mohamed Hassan, and Djibouti's ambassador to Ankara, Aden Hussein Abdallah.

Trade corridors and strategic location
Uraloğlu said the meeting addressed cooperation between Türkiye and Djibouti in transport and logistics, the development of regional trade corridors, and opportunities for mutual investment.
Uraloğlu said the two countries aim to advance their economic and trade relations by leveraging Djibouti's strategic location between Africa and Asia.

Djibouti overlooks the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, one of the world's most important maritime routes, and its ports serve as a major gateway for trade in the Horn of Africa.
