Russia, Turkey key to resolving Syrian crisis: Turkish Ambassador to Russia

Russia and Turkey are some of the key players in the resolution of the Syrian crisis, which cannot be overcome without the participation of Moscow and Ankara, Umit Yardim, Turkey’s Ambassador to Russia, stressed, Sputnik reports.

The Ambassador expressed hope that, with the participation of Russia, the Syria talks will lead to the happiness and prosperity of the Syrian people.

"The key players, of course, are Russia and Turkey, among others. Of course this issue has always been on our agenda with our Russian colleagues. I think that it is probably inaccurate and unrealistic to think that the solution to the Syrian conflict is possible without the participation of Turkey and the Russian Federation," Yardim said in an interview with Rossiya-24 TV.
