Erdoan to visit Albania and Serbia

President Recep Tayyip Erdoan will visit Albania and Serbia this week, the country's communications department announced on Wednesday.

Erdoan is due to inaugurate the Grand Mosque of Tirana in Albania on Thursday. The largest mosque in the Balkans, its construction was financed by Trkiye.

When he received Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama in February, Erdoan highlighted that Trkiye was among the five largest foreign investors in Albania with $3.5 billion (€3.2 billion) committed to the country.

More than 600 Turkish companies employ more than 15,000 Albanian workers, he added.

The two NATO member countries also cooperate in the military field. Tirana's military arsenal includes Turkish Bayraktar TB2 drones, the first of which arrived this year.

On Friday, Erdoan will travel to Serbia, where Trkiye made a major political comeback in 2017 with his historic visit to Belgrade.

At the time, Erdoan and his Serbian counterpart Aleksandar Vucic had reestablished ties between their countries.

Five centuries of Ottoman presence in Serbia have weighed heavily on relations between Belgrade and Ankara.

Another source of tension lies in the cultural and historical ties between Trkiye and the former Serbian separatist province of Kosovo. Kosovo declared independence from Serbia in 2008, a decision that Belgrade still refuses to recognize.

The 2017 visit nevertheless restored Trkiye's relations with Serbia, Belgrade-based analyst Vuk Vuksanovic told AFP.

Since then, “the Balkans have been a real success story for Trkiye,” he added.

Military cooperation

At times, relations between Trkiye and Serbia were frosty, notably when Ankara sold drones to Kosovo last year, provoking the anger of Belgrade which deemed the decision “unacceptable”.

But the dispute could be resolved through a new cooperation agreement, Vuksanovic believes.

“I would not be surprised if we see a military agreement at the end of this visit,” Vuksanovic said.

He expects discussions in Belgrade to focus on “military cooperation, the position of Turkish companies and Belgrade's attempts to persuade Ankara to moderate its support for Kosovo.”

Even though the rapprochement between Ankara and Belgrade is relatively recent, economic ties between the two countries are already important.

Turkish investments in Serbia have increased from $1 million to $400 million over the past decade, according to the Trkiye-Serbia business council, cited by Trkiye's Anadolu news agency in June.

Turkish exports to Serbia reached $2.13 billion in 2022, compared to $1.14 billion in 2020, according to official Serbian figures.

Serbia is also an important tourist destination for Turkish nationals, second only to Bosnia.
