Ambassador Markovic met with Mayor of Ankara Mustafa Tuna today, discussing the possibility of deepening the cooperation including the one with the city of Ankara. Ambassador Markovic introduced the mayor with the initiative to build a Turkish-Serbian friendship park in Ankara, where a famous battle for Ankara took place in 1402 when Sultan Beyazit and despot Stefan Lazarevic fought together on the same side. It was pointed out that the significance of this gesture would be symbolic and that it would represent the bright future of mutual Turkish and Serbian relations. In the further conversation, the possibilities of increasing the volume of mutual tourist visits were mentioned. Only a small number of citizens of Serbia visited Ankara and Cappadocia as world-known tourist destinations, and for the purpose of increasing the mutual tourism exchange, the consideration of the possibilities for the establishment a direct air line between Belgrade and Ankara would be highly recommendable. Mayor Mustafa Tuna showed interest in the twinning of Belgrade and Ankara as the capital of two friendly countries. He promised that he would soon come up with a proposal for a specific location for the Friendship Park.
