Turkey, Russia and Iran to hold a videoconference and then a face-to-face meeting on the Syrian settlement – Russian FM Lavrov
Turkish and Russian troops carry out their 17th joint patrol along the key M4 highway in Syria's northwestern province of Idlib.
According to Lavrov, the videoconference will likely take place before a gathering of the Syrian constitutional committee.Syria has been mired in a vicious civil war since early 2011, when the Bashar al Assad regime cracked down on pro-democracy protests. Lavrov said Russia's approach to the Syrian conflict can be applied to Libya, as its main feature is to prompt the conflicting parties to hold talks and provide necessary conditions so that they could find a common ground.
In March, the Libyan government launched Operation Peace Storm to counter attacks on the capital, and recently regained strategic locations, including the Al Watiya airbase and the strategic city of Tarhuna.Turkish and Russian troops carried out their 17th joint patrol along the key M4 highway in Syria's northwestern province of Idlib, Turkey's National Defence Ministry said on Tuesday.
