ANKARA, Turkey — The presidents of Iran, Turkey and Russia vowed to work for a lasting ceasefire after over seven years of civil war in Syria, following a summit aimed at boosting both peace prospects and also their influence in the country.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Iran’s Hassan Rouhani and Russia’s Vladimir Putin reaffirmed their commitment to cooperating for “the achievement of a lasting ceasefire between the conflicting parties”, a joint communique said.
The meeting in Ankara was the second such tripartite summit after the first hosted by Putin in November in the Black Sea city of Sochi, in a new symbol of an increasingly deep cooperation.
However, there was no major breakthrough announced after the summit meeting, and comments by the trio indicated possible tensions in what analysts see as a potentially brittle alliance.
The three powers have backed peace talks in the Kazakh capital Astana, which they argue are a parallel process to UN-supported discussions in Geneva.
I strongly believe there will be no permanent peace in Middle East. Why?
Most leaders in Middle East are hypocrete, they want peace but each leader do not obey HUMAN RIGHT and JUSTICE FOR ALL.
The extremist groups reject the HUMAN RIGHT. So as long as there are the extremist Muslim there is no peace.
The extremist is the agent of Evil who REJECT peace.

Everything you see with these leaders is all bullshit! Planning and plotting against the poor. All these leaders look so high and mighty are actually controlled by the Jews which takes away that macho exterior.
