ANKARA, 17 March, 2021, (TON): Turkish President Erdogan said on Tuesday that Saudi Arabia needs to purchase military drones from Turkey. The occurrence is relied upon to divulge another measurement to the relationship between the two adversary territorial forces.

Relations between Ankara and Riyadh have been strained since the 2016 assassination of journalist Jamal Khashoggi at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Saudi Arabia's call for an unofficial boycott of Turkish goods has already strained bilateral trade, although both countries have said they will work to improve relations.

Speaking on Tuesday, Erdogan expressed dissatisfaction with Saudi Arabia's decision to conduct joint air drills with Turkey's long-time rival Greece.

"Saudi Arabia is conducting joint exercises with Greece and at the same time wants to buy military drones from us," he said. Our hope is a peaceful solution to this issue. "

Turkey has arisen as one of the world's driving makers of military drones. These drones assisted Turkey with unifying Azerbaijan in a six-week battle with Armenia over the contested Nagorno-Karabakh locale a year ago.

DUBAI/ANKARA/MOSCOW, 12 March, 2021, (TON): Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said that Turkey, Russia, and Qatar are making a joint attempt to promote a political solution to Syria’s 10-year conflict.

“Today we launched a new trilateral consultation process,” Cavusoglu said on Thursday after talks in Doha with Russian and Qatari foreign ministers. “Our goal is to discuss how we can contribute to efforts towards a lasting political solution in Syria.”

In a joint statement after the talks, the ministers also reaffirmed their commitment to “preserving the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity” of Syria.

Turkey and Qatar have backed fighters who sought to topple Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, while Moscow provided military support which helped al-Assad seize back most of the country.

Diminishing Syrian suffering

Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said the ministers had also discussed mechanisms for delivering humanitarian aid across the whole of Syria, adding “there is a crucial need to lessen the suffering of the Syrians”.

He said the purposes behind Syria's suspension from the Arab League in 2011 remain, while Cavusoglu said ongoing global commitment with al-Assad's administration frustrated endeavors for a political arrangement by giving it more authenticity.
