Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and U.S. President Donald Trump held a phone call on Wednesday, reaffirming their meeting in Washington on Nov. 13.
The two leaders also discussed regional developments as well as bilateral issues in the phone call, according to the Turkish Presidential Communications Directorate.
“Just had a very good call with President Erdogan of Turkey. He informed me that they have captured numerous ISIS fighters that were reported to have escaped during the conflict — including a wife and sister of terrorist killer al Baghdadi,” Trump said in a tweet, referring to the slain Daesh/ISIS leader.
