He explained that Turkey and Russia are pivotal countries in the region, and that strengthening their relations is of great importance to ensure regional stability and resolve regional and internatio
nal problems.
For his part, Slutsky said: “The Palestinian issue is very important for both countries, we need to work with all our might to end the brutality and massacre there.”
