According to Erdogan, trade between Turkey and Venezuela has increased to about $850 million in recent years. Venezuela's gold trade with Turkey has increased as US sanctions have cut off Caracas's other sources of money.

During a joint press conference with Maduro, Erdogan said that Turkey opposes the "one-sided" sanctions imposed on Venezuela. "We will always stand with Venezuela's friendly and brotherly people," he said, adding that he planned to visit Caracas next month.

Manduro hailed Turkey for its assistance during the COVID-19 pandemic and announced the signing of three agreements on banking, agriculture, and tourism.

Erdogan added that he would visit Venezuela in July.
