The relations between Turkey and Russia as well as regional developments, Nagorno-Karabakh in particular, were discussed during the talk.

Stating that Armenia must withdraw from the Azerbaijani lands under its occupation, Erdoğan noted that Azerbaijan’s counter-operation was limited to its own territories.

Voicing that the Armenian administration should be convinced to come to the negotiation table with common sense, Erdoğan underscored that ending the conflict with a lasting solution and bringing stability to the region were of vital importance.
