Tanzania–Turkey relations are the foreign relations between Tanzania and Turkey. The Turkish embassy in Dar es Salaam first opened in 1979,[1] although the Ottoman Empire had previously opened a consulate in Zanzibar, now a part of Tanzania, on March 17, 1837.[1]
Diplomatic relations
Turkey had friendly relations[2] with Tanzania under the founding president Julius Nyerere, who cooperated with Turkey in opposing colonialism[2] and apartheid[2] in Africa. The relations became cooler[3] when Julius Nyerere allowed Che Guevera[3] to use Tanzania during his failed intervention in the Congolese civil war.[3]
After Julius Nyerere’s retirement, relations with Tanzania improved[3] because of Tanzania's progress in democratization[3] and social progress.
