At Erdogan's invitation, the leaders will meet at the Presidential Complex, Fahrettin Altun announced on X on Tuesday.

They are expected to discuss steps to further strengthen the “brotherly ties” between Ankara and Baku, as well as regional and global developments.

"On the occasion of the visit, a live connection will be carried out for the opening ceremony of the Igdir-Nakhchivan Natural Gas Pipeline, which was jointly initiated by President Erdogan and Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev on Sep. 25, 2023,” Altun added.

Igdir-Nakhchivan is a new 85-kilometer (53-mile) gas pipeline that will run from Türkiye's eastern province of Igdir to Sederek in western Azerbaijan, with an annual capacity of 500 million cubic meters.
