MozambiqueâTurkey relations are the foreign
relations between
Mozambique and
Turkey. Turkey has an embassy in
Maputo since March 15, 2011 while Mozambique's ambassador in
Rome is also accredited to Turkey.[1]
Following a diplomatic thaw between Samora Machel and the U.S.
Reagan in 1985, Turkey started to provide Mozambique with economic assistance, which continued after Samora Machel's successor
Joaquim Chissano sped up the liberalization of the economy[5] and announced the end of the
Marxist system.[5]
In September 2023 Turkey and Mozambique signed a defense cooperation agreement, highlighting the growing military and defense industry ties between the two countries. This agreement was signed by Haluk Gorgun, the president of the Turkish Defence Industry Agency, and Mozambiqueâs Defence Minister, Cristovao Artur Chume, in Ankara.[6][7]

Trade volume between the two countries was 153 million USD in 2019.[1]
