Donation from President of the Republic of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan has arrived in Montenegro, following an agreement with President of Montenegro Milo Đukanović. A military aircraft with medical equipment landed at Podgorica Airport. State Secretary of the Ministry of Defence Slobodan Filipović, Ambassador of the Republic of Turkey Songül Ozan and Chief of the Office of the President of Montenegro Miodrag Radović attended the arrival ceremony.
"Medical equipment consists of 50,000 masks, 1,000 protective apparels and 1,000 test kits. This and previous donations are available to the Ministry of Health and the health system of Montenegro. At the time of the biggest pandemic that has engulfed the globe and caused the biggest crisis since the World War II, this donation is expression of solidarity of the Turkish people and great friendship with Montenegro," Filipović said.
He thanked the Ambassador of Turkey, the Turkish people, as well as President Erdogan, our allies and friends.
"Since the coronavirus outbreak, Turkey and Montenegro have shared solidarity as friendly and allied countries. I hope that this equipment will be our contribution to Montenegro's serious fight against the coronavirus," said Ambassador Ozan. She thanked all those who contributed, especially President of Montenegro Milo Đukanović, who recently spoke with President Erdogan, as well as Prime Minister Duško Marković.
The Ambassador recalled that Turkish Airlines had also brought many Montenegrin citizens, and that this was preceded by another donation by Turkey in the form of COVID19 test kits, which is another example of excellent cooperation between the two countries.
