Türkiye informed other NATO members on Monday that it will support the candidacy of Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte for the position of NATO secretary-general, AzVision.az reports citing the Turkish media.
Ankara has announced its support for Rutte for the new NATO secretary-general position, according to Turkish officials.
The decision came following Rutte's meeting with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Istanbul last week to seek support for the NATO secretary-general position.
Erdogan held a one-on-one meeting with Rutte at the Vahdettin Pavilion during Rutte's visit to Türkiye on April 26.
