Tunisian–Turkish relations are foreign relations between Tunisia and Turkey. Tunisia has an embassy in Ankara and a consulate-general in Istanbul. Turkey has an embassy in Tunis. Both countries are full members of the Union for the Mediterranean. The countries have had strong ethnic and cultures ties since the Ottoman colonization of Tunisia starting in the early 16th century. Due to several centuries of at least nominal Ottoman control of Tunisia, as much as 25% of Tunisians are at least partially of creole Turkish descent.[1]
