MOSCOW. Dec 19 (Interfax) - There are no plans for Russian President Vladimir Putin's meeting with the Russian, Iranian and Turkish foreign ministers who are due to gather in a trilateral format in Moscow later this week.
"No," Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov responded to an Interfax question as to whether the chief of state would receive the meeting participants.
The Turkish Embassy in Moscow confirmed to Interfax earlier that Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu would visit Moscow on Tuesday for a trilateral meeting with his Russian and Iranian colleagues. The Iranian Foreign Ministry said, in turn, that the meeting had been scheduled for December 20.
The foreign ministers agreed to confer on the Syria situation in the trilateral format during a telephone conversation on December 17.
