Erdogan, Trump discuss bilateral, regional issues in phone call
During the call, Erdogan tells Trump that Türkiye is "closely" monitoring developments in Syria and stresses that Syria’s unity, social cohesion, and territorial integrity are "important" for Ankara, as stated by reports.
The two leaders also exchange views on efforts to combat ISIS (Daesh) and discuss the status of ISIS members currently held in prisons across Syria.
Erdogan notes that "a peaceful Syria, free from terrorism and developing in all aspects, would contribute to the stability of the region," according to the same accounts.
Turning to Gaza, Erdogan says work to establish peace in the Gaza Strip is ongoing, adding that Türkiye will continue acting in coordination with the United States on this issue.
He also expresses appreciation to Trump for the invitation to the Board of Peace for Gaza.
Earlier on Tuesday, Trump says he would have a "very important" phone call with Erdogan, "who I like a lot."
Previously, US officials announce the creation of the board to "play an essential role in fulfilling" the 20 points of Trump’s plan aimed at permanently ending Israel’s war on Gaza and rebuilding the enclave, while also "providing strategic oversight, mobilizing international resources, and ensuring accountability as Gaza transitions from conflict to peace and development."
In addition, the United States establishes the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza to carry out the second phase of Trump’s Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict, alongside the formation of a founding Executive Board and a Gaza Executive Board to support the proposed transitional framework.
