Russian President Dmitry Medvedev told Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan that the search for a way to end bloodshed in Syria should continue, including in the U.N. Security Council, but that foreign interference was not an option, the Kremlin said. 
 
In a telephone conversation, Medvedev "underscored the need to continue - including in the U.N. Security Council - the search for agreed approaches with the aim of fostering the resolution of the crisis by Syrians themselves, without external interference," the Kremlin said in a statement.
