ANKARA - Agriculture and Rural Affairs Minister Sami Guclu received South Korean Ambassador to Turkey Kim Younk-Ki on Wednesday.
Speaking to reporters before the meeting, Guclu said that Younk-Ki's mission in Ankara would end in February and he was paying a farewell visit.
Noting that Turkey and South Korea had very good political and economic relations, Guclu said that he believed bilateral relations would further develop after Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's visit to South Korea last week.
Stating that they were seeking cooperation with South Korea in agriculture sector, Guclu said they proposed an agreement to South Korea in fields of aquaculture and veterinary.
''We want to take significant steps in agriculture. I will make several proposals about agriculture to the ambassador today,'' he added.
