Russian President to Visit Turkey in December


(MENAFN- QNA) Russian President Vladimir Putin will pay an official visit to Turkey on December 1 to attend the fifth annual meeting of the High Level Cooperation Council, which the two countries established in 2010.

During the meeting, bilateral relations as well as regional and international issues are expected to be discussed, Turkey’s presidential press office said in a statement.

One of the council's aims is to increase the trade volume between the two countries to $100 billion by 2020, according to Anadolu agency (AA).

Putin is also scheduled to meet President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during his visit.

While accepting a letter earlier this week from Turkey’s newly appointed ambassador to Moscow Umit Yardim, Putin said he plans to use his visit to "open up new horizons and take bilateral relations even further."
