Erdogan Will Visit Vatican

Il Sole 24 Ore

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will visit Pope Francis at the Vatican next month for talks likely to focus on the controversial US recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, Rappler reports.

To note, the Turkish leader and head of the Roman Catholic Church both strongly opposed the bitterly-contested move announced by US President Donald Trump at the end of last year.

According to Vatican, Erdogan's first trip to the tiny state will be on February 5.

The visit follows phone calls between the two leaders who share concerns over the crisis and agree the status quo should remain.
