Turkish Ambassador's 10 March 2014 visit to Marib Governorate, accompanied by the Governor of Marib and a delegation of Turkish Radio and Television (TRT) was regrettably reflected by some Yemeni media in such a way to cause misunderstanding in the public opinion on the works of the Turkish Embassy. In contrast to what has been published in those news, the visit has been conducted totally under the knowledge and organization of the official Yemeni authorities. Obviously, the visit has not been a "secret" one. Yemen TV and the official news agency followed the whole visit, broadcasting and publishing many news about it on the same day.

​

The Embassy is grateful for the arrangements by Yemeni authorities in facilitating this visit which provided a unique chance to review in the field the cooperation needs and potentials that were being discussed for some time between the Governorate of Marib and the Embassy and TIKA Office in Sana'a.
