Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said on Monday there is no reason for high-level talks with Ankara's estranged rival Egypt not to take place, as its efforts to mend ties with Cairo remain stagnant.
"Talks on the lower levels are continuing. It is not out of the question for this to happen on higher levels, so long as we understand each other," Erdogan told state broadcaster TRT Haber in an interview, adding that the two countries should avoid making statements "hurting" one another.
