São Tomé and Príncipe–Turkey relations

Turkey has a relationship with São Tomé and Príncipe spanning over 300 years.[2] The relations began with the arrival Sephardic Jews to Ottoman Empire, where they utilized their networks with other Sephardic Jews, including the anusim[2] who came to establish a Jewish coastal presence[3] in São Tomé and Príncipe as lançados.[2] In 1672, with the establishment of the Portuguese Inquisition[3] in São Tomé and Príncipe, there was a wave of migration of Sephardic Jews and anusim to the Ottoman Empire.[2]

Relations became closer in 1977 when Turkey cooperated with the Lomé Convention and subsequently the Cotonou Agreement to send developmental aid to São Tomé and Príncipe and funds to facilitate the restoration of landmarks in São Tomé.[2]
