Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit Turkey on Monday, Nov. 19, the Kremlin said in a statement on Wednesday.
In Istanbul, Putin, together with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, will take part in a ceremony marking the completion of the construction of the offshore section of the TurkStream gas pipeline in a video-conference, it said.
The two leaders will also have a meeting, during which issues of further development of Russian-Turkish relations and current regional and international problems will be discussed, the statement said.
The construction of the TurkStream, a natural gas pipeline from Russia to Turkey across the Black Sea, started in May 2017. Russian gas giant Gazprom plans to begin supplying gas through the TurkStream at the end of 2019.
