Ushakov confirmed that both Turkish and Russian officials have been arranging a meeting, but the exact date has not been decided yet. He mentioned that President Putin had made a commitment to visit Türkiye following President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's election triumph.

The potential visit comes at a time when relations between Russia and Türkiye are improving. The two countries have been working together to try to broker a peaceful solution to the war in Ukraine. Putin and Erdoğan have also discussed the possibility of resuming grain exports from Ukraine through the Black Sea.

The visit would be Putin's first trip to Türkiye since 2020. It would be a significant sign of the improving relations between the two countries. (ILKHA)
