The Distinguished Service Award of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Turkish: Dışişleri Bakanlığı Üstün Hizmet Ödülü) is civil award issued by the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.[1]
The award consists of a gold medal set and a certificate signed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs. The legal basis of the award is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Directive No. 155 dating from 14 November 1989.[2]
Criteria
[edit]The award is given to locals and foreigners who have demonstrated exceptional success in explaining Turkey in the world stage, in the successful implementation of its foreign policy, in the protection and development of its interests, and in the promotion of its history, language, culture and art. The award is also given to those who have done admirable services in other matters falling within the scope of the Ministry's duties and responsibilities.
