President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin agreed on deepening strategic partnership between Turkey and Russia in a phone call on Saturday.
The two leaders also discussed an agreement removing economic restrictions imposed after the Nov. 2015 jet downing crisis, the TurkStream natural gas pipeline and Akkuyu nuclear plant during the phone call, the Kremlin said.
The two presidents also discussed the importance of setting up de-escalation zones in Syria.
