Turkish PM to visit Iran, Syria
Region, Politics, Security
Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said he will visit Iran and Syria to discuss Iraq, Lebanon, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The Anatolia news agency quoted Erdogan on November 26 as saying he will go to Tehran on December 3 and to Damascus "speedily." Erdogan's move appears part of a growing diplomatic impulse to involve Iran and Syria in a Mideast peace process.
