Turkish PM meets with US President in Washington

A key meeting between Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and U.S. President Barack Obama at the White House in Washington has started.

Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu, EU Minister Egemen Bağış and Economy Minister Zafer Çağlayan are among the many representatives participating in the meeting on behalf of the Turkish delegation. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel are also taking part in the large meeting.

The conflict in Syria is at the top of both countries’ agenda, as the visit comes just a few days after an attack hit the border town Reyhanlı, killing 52 and injuring more than 100.
