Top advisers to U.S. President Joe Biden and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan spoke on Wednesday about a range of issues including how to resolve disagreements, the White House said, days after Turkey's leader threatened to expel U.S. and other ambassadors.
Erdogan over the weekend ordered 10 envoys to be declared "persona non grata" for seeking the release of a jailed philanthropist. He withdrew the threat on Monday, saying the envoys had stepped back and would be more careful.
