Russia, Turkey leaders hold talks on fate of Syria border
None
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin in the Black Sea resort town of Sochi on Tuesday, hours before a five-day cease-fire in northern Syria between Turkish troops and Syrian Kurdish fighters was set to expire.
The talks between Erdogan and Putin are likely to be crucial in determining arrangements along the Syrian-Turkish border, where Ankara demands a long "safe zone" cleared of Kurdish fighters.
