President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday vowed Turkey would not take even the “smallest step back” in an escalating stand-off with Damascus and Russia over the northern Syrian region of Idlib. Meanwhile, a meeting between Erdogan and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, could be in the pipeline, the Turkish foreign minister said, ahead of a possible summit including EU heavyweights Germany and France to find a political solution to the Idlib crisis. “We will not take the smallest step back in Idlib,” Erdogan told his ruling party’s lawmakers in parliament in Ankara.
