The approaches of Russia and Turkey do not always coincide but the two countries will continue to work together to resolve conflict situations in the world, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at a press conference in Athens.
According to him, Moscow and Ankara more than once joined efforts to "create conditions for the settlement of crisis situations". "Such interaction with Turkey will continue", Lavrov said.
"We have good relations with Ankara, but not without problems," the Minister said. - Our approaches to these or those problems do not coincide in everything".
Moscow has repeatedly noted the importance of cooperation between Russia and Turkey in a number of areas, including the settlement of the situation in Syria within the Astana format (Russia, Iran, Turkey). The last round of face-to-face negotiations was held in December last year in Kazakhstan.
