A Turkey-Afghanistan-Pakistan military live exercise on urban warfare will be held in Istanbul on March 19-26. The three decided to hold joint exercises at the conclusion of the 5th Trilateral Summit in December 2010.
The exercise constitutes one of the tangible results of the Trilateral Summit process, which was initiated in 2007 and has become since then an increasingly important platform for dialogue and cooperation among the three countries on a wide range of issues, said a written statement released by the Foreign Ministry.

"We are convinced that the exercise will contribute to the stability and development of the region by bolstering solidarity and the culture of collaboration among the three countries," it said.
An international distinguished observers day will also be held in Istanbul on March 25 as part of the exercise. The international distinguished observers day represents the importance attached to transparency as well as the confidence in the level of cooperation attained among the three countries, according to the ministry.
