Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi is scheduled to visit Ankara on January 4 where he will meet with his Turkish counterpart, Tayyip Erdogan, Al Jazeera reports.

The discussions are expected to centre around the situations in Gaza and Syria, in addition to addressing bilateral ties.

A Turkish official also said a planned visit by Raisi in late November was postponed because of the conflicting schedules of the two regional powers’ foreign ministers. At the time, Turkey’s foreign minister was in New York City as part of a “contact group” of Muslim countries on Gaza.
