GAZIANTEP - "Turkey's doors are open to all of its brothers, friends and neighboring countries," said Turkish Minister of Industry and Trade Ali Coskun on Wednesday.
Coskun spoke at the inauguration of the Second Iraq International Fair in southeastern province of Gaziantep on Wednesday.
"Our world is rapidly becoming a single market. All economic obstacles and commercial barriers are rapidly being lifted. The 57 Islamic countries of the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) have annual production capacity that is almost equal to the annual production capacity of Germany. We need to cooperate in order to stay competitive," noted Coskun.
Meanwhile, Iraq's Minister of Public Works Byan Dizayee underlined that "Iraq needs the contribution of Turkish companies in the rebuilding of Iraq."
