Turkish Foreign Ministry reveals why meeting of diplomats on Syria postponed

A four-party meeting of senior diplomats on Syria has been postponed at Russia’s request, but no new date has yet been agreed, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said.

"The Russian side has informed us that it has not yet completed its preparations and requested a postponement. It was proposed that the meeting be held in a different timeframe and we agreed," he said.

At the same time he didn't rule out that the meeting was actually postponed at Syria’s request.

A meeting of Russian, Iranian, Syrian and Turkish deputy foreign ministers had been planned in Moscow in March to discuss preparations for a ministerial meeting on normalizing relations between Ankara and Damascus.
