Moscow will early next year host the leaders of Russia, Iran and Turkey to discuss the Syrian crisis, Russia’s deputy foreign minister said Friday, after the United States announced it was withdrawing troops from the country.
“It’s our turn to host the summit… around the first week of the year. This will depend on the schedules of the presidents,” Mikhail Bogdanov was cited as saying by Interfax news agency.
The meeting will be the latest step in the Astana peace process — set up in early 2017 by Russia and Iran, and Turkey.
