`Turkish president took important step` - Kremlin
Turkey`s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in his letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin, took a very important step to normalize the relations, says Dmitry Peskov, Russian president`s spokesman.
“However, further steps are needed, since it won`t be possible to resolve the problem in several days,” AzVision.az reports citing the Russian Media.

Peskov told reporters June 27 that Turkey`s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan sent a letter of condolences to Russia`s President Vladimir Putin over the death of Russian Su-24 pilot, expressing regret over the incident.

Erdogan said Turkey "shares the pain of the downed Su-24 pilot`s death with his family" and "sees it as Turkey`s pain".

“Turkey`s President Erdogan has really sent a letter [to Putin]. An important step has been taken towards normalization of the relations,” said Peskov.

“You were aware that Russia and President Putin were holding a very consistent position,” he said. “Putin has repeatedly expressed a desire to have good relations with Turkey and Turkish people, has emphasized that those good ties have no alternatives and talked about the necessary conditions for normalizing those relations.”
