High profile visit by Iranian chief of staff
Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces of Iran Mohammad Bagheri has paid a rare visit to Turkey, the first visit by the head of Iran's military since the 1979 revolution. Why this visit now? One conclusion is that Turkey's policies toward Syria has failed, combined with its differences with the US due to the Kurdish issue, and its problems with NATO. General Bagheri met President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to discuss the latest situation in Syria. It was announced that Turkey will carry out a number of activities with Iran to boost military cooperation.
