The foreign ministers of Germany and Turkey have agreed to pass all obstacles that have broken the relationship between the parties. Since the failed coup of the state and after the arrest of German citizens in Turkey, Berlin and Ankara have been involved in a wave of disputes, the Oranews broadcasts.
But from their meeting at a royal palace in central Germany, ministers Sigmar Gabriel and Mevlut Cavusoglu said they are committed to making changes in their relationship.
German Minister Gabriel stressed the historic ties between the countries, including the role Turkish workers played in the reconstruction of Germany after World War II.
Meanwhile, the Turkish counterpart voiced confidence that the parties could resolve any tension through dialogue. However, the two leaders of diplomacy acknowledged that the countries again differ on many issues.
Cavusoglu said that the quarrel between the sides remains Turkey's membership in the European Union -- the move Germany opposes.
