Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan arrived in the UAE, early Wednesday, on a state visit.
He was accompanied by the Turkish First Lady Emine Erdogan.
Deputy Prime Minister and the Minister of the Presidential Court Sheikh Mansour Bin Zayed Al Nahyan received the Turkish delegation.
A number of senior Emarati officials like the Minister of Investment Mohamed Hassan Al Suwaidi, and UAE Ambassador to Turkey Saeed Thani Hareb Al Dhaheri were also at the reception of the Turkish president and his delegation.
Last month, Turkish newspaper "Hurriyet" reported that investment agreements worth $40 billion will be signed during the visit, pointing out that in the first investment package, priority will be given to sectors such as renewable energy and transportation.
