Historical Relations

Historically, Monaco's foreign relations with Turkey were limited due to the Franco-Monégasque Treaty, which required [2] Monaco to refrain from conducting a foreign policy in exchange for France's defense of Monégasque independence and sovereignty. [1]

In 2005, Monaco renegotiated the 1918 Franco-Monégasque Treaty to allow full direct diplomatic relations between Monaco and other countries. [2] Taking advantage of the updated treaty, in 2006, Turkey and Monaco established full diplomatic relations. [1]

The Turkish consulate-general in Marseille is accredited to Monaco since September 16, 2008 and handles most diplomatic and working-level contacts with Monaco. [1]
