Istanbul, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin agreed Thursday to hold a summit in Istanbul alongside Iranian President Hassan Rouhani aimed at reviving the peace process in Syria, a Turkish presidential source said.
Putin had already hosted a similar summit with his Turkish and Iranian counterparts in the Black Sea resort of Sochi in November. A Turkish official told AFP the date for the Istanbul summit would be fixed later.
