[The Jerusalem Post] Ten Turkish ministers head to Syria for talks

Less than a week after Turkey informed Israel that it was unwelcome in the Anatolian Eagle military exercise, 10 Turkish ministers are scheduled to travel to Syria on Tuesday to take part in a meeting of the newly formed Turkey-Syria High Level Strategic Cooperation Council.

The council was established last month in Turkey at a meeting between Turkish foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu and his Syrian counterpart, Walid Moallem. At that meeting, the two countries -- which were on the verge of war over a border dispute in the 1990s -- agreed to do away with visa requirements for visitors to and from both countries. Among the Turkish ministers who will meet their Syrian counterparts on Tuesday are Davutoğlu, Energy and Natural Resources Minister Taner Yıldız and Interior Minister Beşir Atalay.
