Tomorrow Russian President Vladimir Putin will be Tehran for a summit of the heads of state guarantors of the Astana process (Russia, Iran, Turkey) on Syria. Putin, informs Tass, will also hold bilateral talks with Iranian and Turkish counterparts Ebrahim Raisi and Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and will meet with Iranian spiritual leader and leader Ali Khamenei. The previous Astana “troika” summit – the sixth in a row – took place online on 1 July 2020 due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The parties agreed to meet in person in Tehran when the epidemic situation allows. Two years later, “the time has come to discuss the hot topics that have accumulated in this period”, underlines Tass, according to which at the end of the summit the leaders intend to adopt a joint declaration, the draft of which “has been prepared and is it has already been practically agreed “.
