Chief of Turkish General Staff Gen. Necdet Özel departed today for a formal visit to Saudi Arabia, the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) announced on its website.

Although no further statement was provided on the TSK’s site, news reports said the three-day visit was the first visit to Saudi Arabia by a Turkish chief of General Staff in the last two decades.

According to the same reports, Özel will hold talks during the visit with Hussein al-Kabil, the Saudi military chief of staff, and Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz al-Saud, the country’s deputy prime minister and defense minister, who was named as crown prince in June.

Additionally, Özel will visit some military facilities, the reports said, noting that a second high-level delegation will travel to Riyadh at the same time as Özel for the first meeting of a joint military committee between the two countries.

Turkey has a very smart military diplomatic policy. Sending the army chief to Middle East to expand ties while sending the Navy chief to India to establish new strategic relations.

Ataturk's teachings has indeed transformed Turkey.
