Referring to the recent quadrilateral meeting in Moscow, Çavuşoğlu said, "In this meeting, we agreed to prepare the infrastructure for the safe return of Syrian refugees to areas under the control of the Syrian central government."
A large number of Syrian refugees who reside in Turkey want to return to their country, but this process should be done within the framework of international laws and based on the plan of Turkey as the host country, he also said.

At the end of the meeting, the foreign ministers issued a joint statement, stressing their commitment to the territorial integrity of Syria and preparing a roadmap for developing relations between Damascus and Ankara.
