A meeting of the Turkish military command with representatives of the Ministry of Defense was held in Moscow. From the Turkish side, the head of the General Staff of the Armed Forces and the Director of National Intelligence took part in the negotiations on Syria. The Russian side was represented by Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, Chief of Staff Valery Gerasimov and others.
What was the outcome of the negotiations - not reported, but from the Syria itself comes conflicting information. A number of Middle Eastern media сообщили on the withdrawal of the Russian contingent of troops from the Syrian city of Afrin in order to prevent a military clash with the Turkish army, which is preparing a large-scale military campaign in the area.
How it became is known later, the Turkish military transferred to the territory of Syria their modern EW Koral complexes, which, according to a number of expert assessments, are ways to counteract the Russian C-400 air defense system deployed in the Arab Republic.
