MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin on Monday hosted his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, for talks expected to focus on the situation in Syria, the sale of Russian missiles to Turkey and other economic deals.
Greeting Erdogan at the start of their talks at the Kremlin in Moscow, Putin said they will discuss the delivery of Russia’s most advanced S-400 air defense missile systems to Turkey, a move that has vexed the US government, Turkey’s NATO partner.
