Erdogan Joins Virtual Meeting with Global Leaders
(MENAFN) On Wednesday, Turkish Leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan took part in a virtual meeting with the leaders of the United States, Saudi Arabia, and Syria.
The video conference was attended by United States Leader Donald Trump, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, with Erdogan joining from Turkey.

Erdogan also reaffirmed Turkey 's ongoing support for Syria in its battle against terrorist organizations, particularly ISIS (Daesh).
He offered Turkey's assistance in overseeing and safeguarding the prisons that house ISIS militants, emphasizing Turkey's readiness to contribute to security efforts in the region.
Regarding US Leader Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Syria, Erdogan stressed that this action holds historic significance.

Condemning the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Erdogan reiterated Turkey's continued efforts to end the cycle of violence, asserting that the time has come to put an end to the suffering in the Palestinian territory.
On the subject of the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, Erdogan called for immediate ceasefire and peace talks at both the leadership and technical levels.
