Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday said that a road map on Syria’s Idlib was set following his phone calls with the leaders of Russia, France and Germany.
President Erdogan said, “After all the evaluations, we determined our road map”, according to the media.
However, Erdogan did not reveal any details about the road map.
On Friday, the Turkish leader and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin reaffirmed their countries’ commitment to previous agreements on Syria in a telephonic conversation.
The phone call comes just after Erdogan said earlier in the day that the outcome of his discussion with Putin would “determine” Turkey’s attitude toward the Idlib issue.
Last week, President Erdogan said that Turkey has “no intention to invade or annex the Syrian territory”.
Earlier, the Syrian regime and Iranian-backed groups also launched a ground offensive in Aleppo province, a designated de-escalation zone, forcing at least 13,000 more civilians to move toward Turkey’s border.
The war in Libya, where Turkey is sending troops in support of the UN-recognized Government of National Accord, and the conflict in Syria, where Ankara and Moscow are both militarily involved, are also set to dominate the summit as well.
Turkey launched a cross-border assault on Kurdish fighters after the US decided to withdraw troops from Syria, a move that was criticised by the Republicans, with some terming it a “betrayal” of the Kurds.
The Syrian army entered the city of Tabqa in the northern countryside of Raqqa province, as part of its move to enter Kurdish-held areas to counter the ongoing Turkish assault in the region.
More than 50 people, including civilians, have been killed last year as the Turkish offensive in Syria, which was launched by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan aimed at pushing the Kurdish forces away from its border.
