We place great importance on TUKSOY: Turkish minister of culture

"As we do not want Turkey to all powers, we shared the management with other countries. Former Culture Minister of Kazakhstan is a new Director General of TURKSOY. Azerbaijani Culture Minister is chairman of the Management Board. So, Turkey, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan share the management," Turkey's Culture and Tourism Minister Ertugrul Gunay said.

We are deepening our relations with the Kyrgyz, the Turkmen and Uzbeks. Kazan tatars, gagauz have given positive reaction to our projects. We are extending hand to Bosnia. So, we study our common cultural heritage, deepen our relations and improve tourism potential among the countries. The countries in the east of Turkey failed to promote their tourism potential because of their secluded regime. But I believe in usefulness of different kinds of our cooperation," he said.
