"Those close relations, which are there between our countries' leaders, as well as those long-term contacts, which are developing between our countries, help to find new solutions for problems in the region, and open new horizons for projects," Ahmet Berat Conkar, a member of the Turkish Justice and Development Party, said.
President Putin is expected to visit Turkey on December 1 to attend the Top-Level Cooperation Council. Putin will also meet with Erdogan to discuss cooperation in trade, economic and energy sectors.
Russia is one of Turkey's main trading partners. In 2013, bilateral trade between the countries reached $32.7 billion. Earlier in November, the Russian leader said that he and Erdogan had agreed to bring mutual trade up to $100 billion in the next few years.
