ISTANBUL: Turkey is working to achieve a cease-fire in Syria’s rebel-held northwest and is ready for cooperation to fight terrorist groups in the Idlib area, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Friday.
Speaking at a joint news conference with his Pakistani counterpart, Cavusoglu said Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan will speak with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the topic of Syria on Monday.
Erdogan met with the leaders of Iran and Russia last week in Tehran to discuss Syria, but failed to win a cease-fire pledge.
