Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said Thursday that Turkey and Russia are planning to hold a meeting soon to further discuss the situation in Syrias Idlib. Speaking to broadcaster TRT Haber, Cavusoglu said Turkey and Russia would intensify their talks on Idlib in the coming days, adding that discussions were not at the desired level yet. Meanwhile, Ankara and Moscow are discussing possible joint patrols as one way to reach a deal to halt fighting there, a Turkish official said on Thursday. Speaking on the condition of anonymity, he told Reuters that Turkey, Russia, and Iran planned to meet in Tehran early next month to further discuss Syria, including the developments in Idlib. A Russian delegation may come to Ankara before that to evaluate progress made on Idlib, he added. Earlier, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Wednesday that a military operation in Idlib was a “matter of time”. “We did not reach the desired results in our talks with Russia. The talks will continue, but it is true that we are far from meeting our demands at the table,” he said.
