Diplomatic Relations[edit]

Turkey and Lesotho historically had friendly relations. The relations were tense[2] for a short while after the 1970 election in Lesotho when Jonathan suspended[3] the constitution, arrested and expelled King Moshoeshoe II, and banned opposition parties.[4] Relations improved when King Moshoeshoe II was restored as head of state.[5] Through TIKA, Turkey has been building schools and hospitals in Lesotho.[6]
