After negotiations in Sochi, Erdogan cancel joint press conference, dinner with Putin

This is reported by the Russian publication Kommersant.

According to the publication, after the meeting in Sochi, Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan intended to hold a large joint press conference, which ultimately did not take place at all.  According to the newspaper, communication with the mass media was refused at the initiative of the Turkish president.

In addition, Erdogan reduced the photo session with Putin to a minimum - only one photographer took several pictures. The leader of Turkey flew out of Russia almost immediately after the four-hour negotiations and refused to have a joint dinner with Putin, which was previously planned.
