US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has announced plans to meet with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan to discuss coordination on Syria. The focus of the meeting will be on preventing any actor, whether inside or outside the country, from prioritizing their narrow self-interests over the well-being of the Syrian people.
Before departing Jordan for Turkey, Blinken informed reporters that he had engaged in numerous calls with regional partners who all agreed on the necessity of a unified approach to advance shared interests. He also mentioned speaking with Jordanian King Abdullah and Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi during his time in Jordan to strengthen this unified approach towards Syria.
