Turkish FM, Russian officials discuss region issues

Foreign Ministry Undersecretary Feridun Sinirlioğlu and Russian Deputy Foreign Minister and State Secretary Grigory Karasin met in Ankara on Wednesday for consultations on Eurasia and possible cooperation in the region.

The two officials met to discuss developments in the South Caucasus and Central Asia in Ankara. Cooperation opportunities in Eurasia were also on the agenda in the meeting, according to a statement released by the Turkish Foreign Ministry.
