In 2014, Turkey and Poland celebrated the 600th anniversary of diplomatic relations. The intensive interaction led at the end of the day to overlapping of cultures in both the countries. Such a long history of diplomatic ties happens only rarely in international relations.

Islam is one of the issues that makes Turkey distant from Poland and Europe, especially now, in the time of migration crisis – writes Małgorzata Bonikowska PhD, President of CIR, in a text entitled Poland and Turkey After 600 Years published in Balkanlarda Islam by Turkish Cooperation and Coordination Agency.
