MOSCOW (APP) – Russian President Vladimir Putin will not meet his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the climate conference in Paris, the Kremlin said Monday, as a dispute rages over Ankara’s downing of a Russian warplane.
“No meeting with Erdogan is planned,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists, after the Turkish leader called for a meeting with Putin at the summit to discuss the shooting down of the plane on the Syria-Turkish border.
