Erdogan: I may meet with the Syrian president when "the time is right"

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Thursday that he might meet with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad when the time is right, and that he would not rule it out.

"Such a meeting is not on the agenda right now. But I cannot say that it is impossible to meet Assad," Erdogan said at a press conference in Prague.

"When the time is right, we can also head to the meeting with the Syrian president," he added.
