What Putin and Erdogan Discuss During Their Phone Conversations

The President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, and the President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, are discussing the situation surrounding their countries during their phone conversations. This was reported to journalists by the press secretary of the President of Russia, Dmitry Peskov.

Earlier, Erdogan stated that the date for Putin's visit to Turkey has not yet been determined, adding that he is in constant contact with his Russian counterpart. Peskov confirmed that the absence of personal meetings between the presidents is compensated for by quite frequent phone calls.

“We are trying to keep you as fully informed as possible about the content of these conversations, but, of course, the discussions mainly concern bilateral relations. We have developed economic ties, many joint projects, and the situation surrounding our countries, unfortunately, leaves much to be desired, and thus it always becomes a reason for discussions,” said Peskov.
