Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan met Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa on Wednesday at the Turkish House (Turkevi) in New York, stating that Türkiye expects all sanctions on Syria to be lifted as soon as possible.
The meeting focused on bilateral relations and regional issues, with Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani and Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin also in attendance.
