Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Thursday met with leaders of the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) in Kazakhstan's capital Astana.
"President [Erdoğan], who is in Kazakhstan's capital Astana for the 10th Summit of the Organization of Turkic States, met with President Sadyr Japarov of Kyrgyzstan," the Turkish presidency said on X.
The Turkish presidency later announced that Erdoğan also met with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
No detailed information was provided about either meeting.
Earlier in the day, the Turkish president arrived in Astana, where he will attend the OTS summit on Friday and hold various bilateral meetings.
The OTS, formerly called the Turkic Council, was established in 2009 as an intergovernmental organization made up of prominent independent Turkic countries that work together to elevate relations and union among themselves.
Its members are Türkiye, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, while Hungary, Turkmenistan and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus have observer status.
