ANKARA (AA) – Turkey’s top diplomat held a phone conversation with his U.S. counterpart, according to Turkish diplomatic sources on Friday.
Mevlut Cavusoglu and Mike Pompeo discussed Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s planned visit to the U.S.
The phone conversation also addressed YPG/PKK ringleader Ferhat Abdi Sahin -- also known as "Mazloum Kobani" and bilateral ties.
Kobani is subject of an Interpol red notice and is wanted for multiple terror attacks targeting the Turkish security forces.
U.S. senators -- including Republican Lindsey Graham and Democrat Chris Van Hollen -- asked the U.S. State Department on Wednesday to provide a visa for Kobani so he could visit the country.
