President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin discussed late Friday the developments in war-ravaged Idlib town in northwestern Syria, which has recently seen a humanitarian disaster due to heavy bombardments by the Assad regime and its main backer Russia. In the phone call, the leaders reiterated their willingness to fully implement all agreements regarding measures to defuse tensions in the city, Daily Sabah reports.

According to a statement by the Presidency, Erdoğan told Putin it is imperative that Assad regime's actions and the consequent humanitarian crisis must be stopped in Idlib, and that the Sochi deal must be implemented in full.
