Davutoglu says new horizon opened in Turkey-Greece ties

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said that Turkey-Greece relations had a new horizon.

Davutoglu met with Alternate Foreign Minister Dimitris Droutsas of Greece in London on Thursday.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Davutoglu said that they discussed the contents of the letters between Turkish and Greek prime ministers.

Noting that he invited Droutsas to Turkey, Davutoglu said that Droutsas accepted the invitation. He added that Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan was planning to pay a visit to Athens.

Davutoglu said that there was a big cooperation potential in Turkey-Greece relations, adding that the two countries could also cooperate in regional issues like the Balkans, Mediterranean and Middle East.

Davutoglu is expected to return to Turkey on Friday after attending a meeting at a think-tank.
