Burundi–Turkey relations are the foreign relations between Burundi and Turkey. Turkey has an embassy in Bujumbura since December 2018, and Burundi's Embassy in Ankara opened in June 2014.[1]

Diplomatic Relations

The relationship between Turkey and Burundi has been very limited until 2000. Turkey has been an importer of Burundi's coffee and has offered some international aid and assistance.[2]

During the Cold War, and especially in the 1960s, relations between Turkey and Burundi cooled because of the latter's relationship with communist China. However, this was very short-lived and relations improved later.[3] Relations soured[3] following the 1972 massacre.[4] In 2000, relations became closer when Turkish diplomatic corps strongly supported Arusha Accords.[5]

Economic Relations

  • Trade volume between the two countries was 3.1 million USD in 2019 (Turkish exports/imports: 2.6/0.5 million USD).[6]
