Russian President Vladimir Putin will pay an official visit to the Turkish capital Ankara on Dec. 11 to meet with President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Turkish presidency said in a statement on Dec. 8

Putin will visit Ankara on Dec. 11 "at the invitation of" Erdoğan, the presidency said, adding that the talks would focus on the latest developments on Jerusalem and the situation in Syria.

The Kremlin confirmed the visit by Putin on Dec. 8, saying the two leaders would discuss energy projects and "key international problems."

Erdoğan and Putin held a phone call on Dec. 7 where they agreed that the U.S. decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital will negatively impact the region's peace and stability.
