The European Union appointed a military advisor for its mission in Turkey for the first time earlier this month, a western official with knowledge of the matter told Middle East Eye.
According to the official, the move followed ongoing discussions in Brussels about Turkey's role within the broader European security architecture.
European countries such as Germany have been advocating for a more strategic dialogue with Turkey on defence issues, including cooperation in building defence industry production capabilities - particularly after Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
TurDef, a Turkish news outlet specialising in defence issues, reported that the EU has appointed Colonel Adam Grzymkowski, formerly Poland's defence attaché in Ankara, as military advisor to the head of the EU delegation in Turkey.
The western official added that, under the principle of reciprocity, Turkey will also be able to appoint a Turkish defence advisor to its mission to the EU in Brussels.
