Turkish Foreign Ministry thinks trilateral meeting on Syria makes sense

We believe that contacts with the Syrian side are important to achieve lasting peace and a political solution, and such interaction is important to reach a compromise between the authorities and the moderate Syrian opposition, he said, according to local newspaper Hürriyet .

Cavusoglu said that in the next stage it is necessary to arrange a meeting between foreign ministers.

A specific date for such a meeting has not yet been worked out and there is a clear date for similar talks between the leaders, the foreign minister said, adding that Ankara will continue the fight against terrorism in Syria.

In Moscow the day before, for the first time in 11 years, the heads of the defense departments of Türkiye and Syria spoke in a trilateral format with the participation of Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.

As a result, it was decided to continue contacts in this way.
